Desert Highlights is Moab's original canyoneering guide service. This half day canyoneering tour visits a route that Desert Highlights' founder created as a technical guided canyoneering route in the late 1990's. Here, we explore an area that most people would not visit on their own. With the use of ropes and other technical gear, a competent guide and a sense of adventure, we are able to explore areas that are otherwise inaccessible. The Moab desert is our home and we are passionate about sharing it with others. During your guided tour, you will not only safely descend a beautiful, water-carved canyon, but you will learn about the flora and fauna, geology and history of the area that we are so lucky to call our backyard.

Cần Quan Tâm
Arrive at Desert Highlights at the chosen time. Your guide will outfit you with all of the necessary gear and drive your group to the start of the canyon. We'll hike, climb, scramble, shimmy, and rappel through a beautiful red rock, water carved canyon. **The finale of the technical section sometimes includes a swim through chilly water – refreshing during the summer months, though this quality prohibits us from comfortably visiting this canyon in all but the hottest months of the year.** This tour is suitable for beginner and experienced canyoneers alike. Desert Highlights has experienced and knowledgeable guides that will literally "show you the ropes", ensuring your safety and teaching you everything you need to know to descend the canyon safely. This canyon includes a 15-foot rappel and an optional 90-foot rappel. We are extremely passionate about our backyard and you'll gain knowledge and respect for our desert environment while out on your Moab canyoneering adventure! This tour typically lasts anywhere from 4 to 6 hours. *Please be prepared to wade or swim through water in this canyon. We require closed toe shoes to be worn for this whole trip*

5.00You ever visit old friends who live out state and they take you to all the cool local spots around town? That’s how it felt with this outfitter! Super friendly and knowledge staff who were all clearly seasoned outdoor professionals. Our whole crew had a blast which included 3 kids under 10 and 4 adults. We booked two different tours with them one repelling and one climbing. Each was unique and exciting in different ways. We loved them so much and can’t wait to book with them again! They get all the stars!

5.00We had an awesome canyoneering experience, and a huge part of that was our guide, Skylar. From the very beginning, he made our family feel comfortable, capable, and most importantly, safe. He struck the perfect balance of being supportive and encouraging while still giving us just the right amount of challenge. Skylar was incredibly patient, especially important since we were doing this as a family, and he took the time to make sure everyone felt confident at every step. His calm, knowledgeable approach made what could have been intimidating feel exciting and fun. We’re so grateful to Skylar and Desert Highlights for making it so special. Highly recommend!

5.00Our experience with Desert Highlights was nothing but positive. The tour was just as described, or better, with great explanations of the geography and local history. I was rather nervous about repelling, but our guide,Jacob, talked us through every step and I felt very safe and supported. It was a thrilling experience and I am so glad I took the plunge (at 70 yo!). I can't say enough about this company - you won't be disappointed!
Excellent day out!

5.00We had a great time with Preston as our guide. It was the first time canyoneering for all of us & Preston made everyone feel comfortable & safe. Our kids, age 9 & 12, absolutely loved it and said they’d do it again for sure. The hike out after the second rappel was beautiful as well. Great place to visit, wonderful guide, highly recommended!

5.00We have now done 3 separate adventures with Desert Highlights. Most recently, they took my family including my 78 year old mother and 9 year old daughter through medieval chamber. Kai was very helpful over the phone understanding the skill level of my family. She helped to calm my nerves and helped us pick the right trip for our group. Jake was our guide through the canyon. He was professional, skilled and patient throughout the day. He was able to access fitness abilities/limitations and make accommodations for all involved. This allowed all of us to feel accomplished and challenged. I highly recommend this company for your adventure.
A great into to canyoneering

5.00Highly recommend this tour. Our guide Preston was a pro and made sure we were, and felt, safe every step of the way. There was some scrambling up a tight, steep crack between two fins that was a bit nerve-wracking but totally doable, even for an older (but active) guy like me. The first rappel, 100+ feet down next to the amazing Pool Arch, I definitely had to psych myself up for, but Preston gently coached me through it and showed me exactly what to do to enjoy it. After that I felt more comfortable in myself and had a fantastic time. The scenery and sense of adventure on this tour are fantastic.

5.00For our first canyoneering trip Desert Highlights made it a memorable one. Preston was friendly, conscientious, knowledgeable, and great with our kids. He helped us all find the confidence to try something scary and helped us feel safe and have fun. There are lots of adventure guide companies in Moab, but we'll be coming back to Desert Highlights for sure. Our guide gave us a great experience, recommended a great restaurant for dinner afterward, took great photos, and picked up every bit of litter he encountered on the hike out.
Wonderful Canyoneering Adventure!

5.00Our three person adventure with our guide Jake was phenomenal. His easy going personality put us both at ease, especially my husband and friend who aren't too crazy about rappelling since they aren't comfortable with heights. Jake was patient and very informative about the area and plants. He also explained the rappelling process to the level of which we needed to know. Some people require little information! Not me! Jake is a true teacher! The pace was perfect for our two rappels: Medieval Arch and Morning Glory Bridge. This was an excellent 'beginner' adventure with only a half day vested. DH will prepare you with a list of what is needed so you can successfully complete the rappel and hike. I have used Desert Highlights for about 4 adventures now, and I will continue to do so! We were safe, entertained, taught and guided with the most thoughtful and kind consideration! Check them out! Love, love!!
