Fall Color Report - 2025
Rated as one of the “Top Eight Unique Destinations to View Fall Colors” by NBC’s Today Show and USA Today. The honors are partly due to the concentration of scenic routes that run through the red rock vistas of southern Utah, including National Scenic Byway 143 and Highway 148 through Cedar Breaks National Monument.
