Description
Valley of the Gods is a scenic backcountry area in southeastern Utah, near Mexican Hat. It is a hidden gem with scenery similar to that of nearby Monument Valley. Valley of the Gods offers isolated buttes, towering pinnacles and wide open spaces that seem to go on forever.
There are no designated trails or campgrounds, but there is plenty of backcountry where you can wander and explore.
A 17-mile dirt and gravel road winds through the valley. It is sandy and bumpy, with steep sections. It provides a fun drive through an area that is usually deserted. It is a great place to get away from civilization - to get away from everything associated with modern life.

nicely composed making used of the S-curve of the road. This is quite a find; I was not aware of it. Need for your vehicle to be in good condition with the combination of being remote and deserted.
