- Description
Both Kanab and Tropic have the amenities you need for a the perfect basecamp for your trip. We recommend booking your lodging or camping ahead of time because this is a popular area during the spring and summer vacation season. This is a great route to tack onto your vacation if you are planning on visiting Kodachrome State Park, Coral Pink Sand Dunes State Park or the nearby Zion or Bryce National Parks. You will find that the Skutumpah road is a welcome contrast to those more crowded attractions.
