USA Las Sal Lookout Point

  • Please log in or sign up for free to see the GPS coordinates & weather for this photo spot
Beautiful scenic drive that climbs in elevation and has incredible views over the Moab Valley and Canyonlands National Park. While driving, visitors will find routes to La Sal Mountain Pass, Geyser Pass, Oowah Lake, Warner Lake and down to Castle Valley. The community of Castle Valley got it’s name from the mesas and buttes throughout the area.

Photography Tips

While I’m glad I drove this mountain loop, I wouldn’t do it again in the snow. At least I wouldn’t make first tracks on an unfamiliar road. I loved the scenery but for much of the drive, we had to guess where the road was. I recommend this spot when the road is clear.

Travel Information

From Moab, head south on US 191 approximately 8 miles and turn left at the Ken's Lake/ La Sal Mountain Loop Road sign. Take a right at the T-intersection and follow the La Sal Mountain Loop Road up into the mountains. The road winds through the mountains and descends via switchbacks towards Castle Valley. To return to Moab, at the intersection with Forest Road 207, take a left to get to Castle Valley and continue for about 10 miles. Take another left at the Hwy 128 intersection to return to Moab.
