Moab Off The Beaten Path Tips by worldtrekker

Hiking along Mill Creek. I...

Hiking along Mill Creek. I visited Moab about 12 times between 1996 - 1999 and unfortunately only found out about this hike during my last trip there in September 1999. It's really only known by locals but I'm sure the Visitor Center could help you find the trailhead which isn't that far from town. You do have to go down Millcreek Rd to get there. I don't know of any other spot in the area where you can take a dip to cool off other than in a swimming pool at your accommodation. We hiked for about an hour to get to this spot (photo). The trail continued on and we followed it for a bit before we turned around. It's an enjoyable walk through the canyon. Next time I will explore this canyon further!
