Cedar Breaks National Monument sits high on the Markagunt Plateau, offering riders a striking reward after the long climb from Cedar Canyon. The rim overlooks a massive amphitheater of red and orange hoodoos, similar to Bryce Canyon but far quieter and more intimate. Expect cooler temperatures and strong winds at the top, and take advantage of the overlook pullouts for a break. The views here are some of the best you’ll get on two wheels in southern Utah.

The Cedar Breaks National Monument is located on the west side of the Paunsaugunt-Plateaus. You might know the much more famous "brother" Bryce Canyon on the east side. The bizarre red sandstone formations in this small park might remind you of those in Bryce Canyon.

Sidney Peak is a small summit, easily accessible by a well-marked trail. The Peak offers an expansive view of the forest and red mountains in the background. It has a false summit, so make sure to go a little bit up the trail to get the views.

Picturesque ponds surrounded by meadows and wildflowers makes it a perfect place to chill and have a picnic, appreciating the peace and quietness.

This viewpoint delivers a beautiful view of the canyon, with all the different tones of red and white contrasting with the green trees. The views pay off the effort to get there, and as this is not such a popular destination, you might even have it just for yourself.

Cedar Breaks National Monument is mostly left out, firstly because it is a bit off the standard routes, you can only get a view of Cedar Breaks NM from above and Bryce Canyon is more spectacular and Bryce Canyon is easy to hike down and into the hoodoos.

It is spectaculair to do. Be aware to take a ticket in advance. Only 150 a day can go inside.

Be advised, this trail has a 150 person per day limit, reservable online for a reasonable fee. Reservations usually fill up at least a week in advance.
