Cedar Canyon Nature Park

Cedar Canyon Nature Park offers a scenic walking and biking trail that follows a creek through the canyon just outside Cedar City. The water runs cold and takes on a striking teal color, especially photogenic at sunset when the surrounding mountains glow orange. The trail climbs gradually uphill but remains manageable for most fitness levels, making for a pleasant 20-minute ride or longer walk. There's no shade structure, restrooms, or developed amenities here, so pack accordingly if you're planning to linger for a picnic along the water.
