2 reviews of Utah Scenic Byway 12

An all American Road

This road is Highway 12 (Utah). It's a National Scenic Byway, that is to say, a road recognised by the Department of Transportation of the United States for its archaeological, cultural or historical significance. Look out for the signs that say All-American Roads if you want to take one of these roads.

Highway 12 is considered one of the top ten most beautiful roads in the United States, and has been designated as an all American Road since 2002. It was really a long trip (200km), but it was so beautiful. We passed through Bryce Canyon, Red Canyon, Escalante National Park, Dixie National Forest and Capitol Reef. Along the way, the landscape changes abruptly to make way for the Escalante National Monument, a series of plateaus, cliffs, gorges, canyons and arches that rise from the Grand Canyon to reach Bryce and Canyonland. It's a natural formation, formed by the waters of the Escalante River (named after a Spanish explorer).
