    Hiking

    In the visitor center you can learn a lot about the geological features of this mountain range running from north to south. As you can guess very well in the eastern end of the Capitol Reef (Grabenbruch with recurring patterns on the eastern side), this park was created on the basis of plate tectonics. Ranger, who often give lectures here, can also be found.
