Vermillion Castle

DIXIE NATIONAL FOREST, UT - The trail is primarily used for hiking, nature trips, and bird watching, and is best used from March until October. Use caution as the trail climbs steeply to a ridge spine and continues to a massive red rock cliff. The trail then crosses a side hill until it comes out to a large flat rock platform with breathtaking views directly into Vermillion Castle and across the canyon to Noah's Ark. 

Trailhead location: 1.4 miles E on Yankee Meadow Road/First Left Hand Canyon from SR-143. From Parowan, take National Scenic Hwy 143, approximately 3 miles to FR #049 in First Left Hand Canyon. Follow beyond the Vermillion Campground entrance, 200 yards. The trailhead is on the north side of the road.

Trail Tips: Dogs friendly, and leashes are required.
