NOTE: The Temple of the Sun and Moon are located in a very remote area of Capitol Reef National Park. Having a 4x4 vehicle is recommended, especially if roads are muddy. In addition to having the right vehicle, make sure you’re prepared for a rugged backcountry adventure. Fill up your gas tank in Hanksville, carry snacks and water, and have supplies like a shovel and emergency gear.

The Temple of the Sun is a striking monolith located in Capitol Reef National Park, Utah. Standing at 5,822 feet tall, this iconic rock formation is made of buff-pink Entrada Sandstone and offers breathtaking views of the surrounding desert landscape.

If you’re up for a long drive through the desert then make your way out to the Cathedral Valley District of the park. The Cathedral Valley District is the most rugged and remote district in Capitol Reef National Park, but it’s worth the drive to 

The entire Cathedral Valley loop is 56 miles if you take both Hartnet Road and Caineville Wash Road. Hartnet Road requires fording the Fremont River shortly after turning off the highway, so you need a high-clearance vehicle.
