Is this MARS?! 😱 Exploring Goblin Valley State Park in Utah!

Goblin Valley State Park is one of the most otherworldly places we have visited in Utah. 🤩 This park is home to three different valleys, which are full of hoodoos, and is basically a giant playground that you can freely explore! It feels like you're on another planet or on a movie set!
We had SO much fun wandering around these goblins and visiting the nearby town of Green River for post-hike tacos and some unique finds.

When our soul merges with the soul of place... it is in that precise moment that life explodes within us in an infinity of emotions. Emotions that give us infinite inner energy, the energy of the gods. Goblin Valley, for me, it's one of those places. Cheers, Domenico.

Great video guys!! Loved that you stopped in Goblin Valley--we missed it on several trips to Utah and when we finally stopped, we were overwhelmed. Cool sculptures in Green River as well. We've missed those on our couple stops in Green River but now we have a reason to return. Know you were in a hurry but there's a cute local museum in town that's also worth a stop if you're into museums.

[@timpartain1301]

Another great video. Ultimate cat & mouse game at Goblin. Can’t wait to see your next one.

[@TimWillinghamRatz]

A scene from the movie Galaxy Quest was filmed there as another planet. I believe it was the spot you referred to as a movie set! We visited in 2020 and fully enjoyed the visit.

[@AdventuresofAplusK]

We need to watch that movie! We heard it was filmed there, but would be really cool to see this spot on the big screen!

This is super fun . I took my 1 yr old there and she was super happy playing peek a boo and catch me 😀.. you two brought our lovely memories back. I love to catch your vlogs. Have fun

I think you two are the only couple travel KZbin channel where you both aren't shirtless and in bikinis the entire time in all your videos haha It's refreshing just to see great commentary, advice, and tips without all the inflated egos! New subscriber!

[@AdventuresofAplusK]

Thank you! We like to think we’re different than a lot of other channels. Thanks for watching!

[@CactusAtlas]

Awesome! So glad you were able to stop there! One of our favorite trips in recent memory. Isn't it wild? Such a unique and strange place. We saw someone else recently stop at those sculptures and are sad that we missed out. Didn't venture out to the Green River area... stuck mostly to Hanksville for ice/wood and such when camping at Goblin Valley. Perhaps next time. 😅 So much more of Utah to explore!

[@AdventuresofAplusK]

We got lucky Green River was on our way to Moab so we could get those tacos and see those sculptures!

Hahaha thanks Jamie! Gotta thank my dad for passing down good elephant sound genes! It was a super fun and delicious day!

[@emmaru9437]

This was a great video, I loved seeing goblin valley again. I was going to hike the lair as well back in August, but it was over 100 degrees and my friend ended up getting sick, so needless to say we went back into the air conditioning instead of doing the hike. It’s been really fun seeing your Utah adventures!

[@AdventuresofAplusK]

Oh wow, we bet it's brutally hot in August! Air conditioning is always a good idea 😄

So cool!!! putting it on our bucket list to go

@@AdventuresofAplusK love the channel, just started watching some of the videos, we hope to emulate some of it. We are just getting going on ours and can't wait to get out west for some trips. Thank you for the great inspiration and of course the taco reviews lol my wife is a mexican food junkie

[@debrabalawajder2617]

I enjoyed this video, too! We had done Goblin on one of our early trips. After our initial visit, we've been back in the area to do the various canyons. Two years ago, we spent a few days in Green River at an Airbnb and explored the San Rafael Swell area. So amazing. My husband wants to go back to see more of that area. Keep having the fun and sharing your videos!

[@AdventuresofAplusK]

Ah nice! Which canyons? We have heard of Little Wild Horse over there, but since we had done a few, we skipped it this time. The San Rafael Swell looks awesome too!

[@debrabalawajder2617]

@@AdventuresofAplusK Several years back we did Little Wild Horse and then on the other side (east) of Rt 24 you take a long gravel road to get to the "Great Gallery". The trip 2 years ago took us to Moonshine Canyon and Colonnade Arch, also on the east side of Rt. 24. The best day in the Swell was taking Buckhorn Wash Rd to the Little Grand Canyon & Wedge Overlook. Taking 70 West from Green River is amazing; the highway goes through the Swell; there's a viewpoint called Spotted Wolf that you get an amazing view of Rt 70 through the Swell.

[@AdventuresofAplusK]

Ah very nice! We really wanted to visit the Little Grand Canyon during this day, but had to cut the day shorter so we could work. Hopefully next time!

It was such a random and fun stop, we love finding things that are unexpected like that. And if you get the watermelon, let us know if it's the best in the world!

[@jessicabuckingham325]

Aghhh my husband and I were in Moab for a week back in mid April and we stopped at Goblin Valley for a few hours and were absolutely amazed! It was such a unique, fun little area! We definitely plan on visiting again and staying overnight because we've heard they have some of the most amazing dark sky views in Utah. Btw I am obsessed with your travel vlogs! You all are our travel goals. My husband and I can't wait to start full time traveling in the next couple years. Can't believe we could've potentially crossed paths out in Utah! Maybe someday down the road our adventures will coincide! Keep it up! You all are awesome!

Ahhh so close! This was mid to late April! And we need to check out the night sky in Utah next time. We were always too tired to stay awake 😅😴 Awesome to hear you’ll get to full time travel soon! 🎉

It’s some of the wildest scenery ever! 😱

[@jazziered142]

@@AdventuresofAplusK It truly is a hidden gem in Utah. When I was at Zions, I was telling everybody about it, and hardly anybody had ever heard of it.

[@michaelwilkinson2110]

So when Kona makes an appearance, does she get a cut of the $$, or does free room and board cover it? ALSO: KATHRYN FAMILY REUNION (years ago): Kathryn's Uncle (uh....) Bill: "Hey, Jim, do The Elephant!" (laughter from group, shouts of encouragement) Kathryn's Mom (hand to forehead): "Oh, God, don't encourage him." Kathryn's Dad "Jim" (stands): "OK, here we go...." (makes sound, gestures to simulate his "trunk") (big laughter from aunts, uncles, cousins, Kathryn, and the black sheep of the family who was invited because Kathryn's Mom is too nice but no one wanted him to show up) Kathryn's Uncle "Bill": "Hey, Jim, who told you yours was that big?" Kathryn's Mom (shakes her head, hand still on forehead): "It isn't, but I married him anyway!" (even bigger laughter) Kathryn: "Ha ha! One day I'll share this with the whole WORLD!"

[@AdventuresofAplusK]

Considering she went to a 7 week board and train program a couple years ago that cost as much as a semester of college, she needs to pull more weight around here 😂 Hahahaha love the family reunion. That would've been hilarious and crazy if my dad was Jim and my uncle was Bill! Lol! But my mom is very nice, so that part is 100% accurate.

[@skylerphoenix8880]

What a fun video! I always see Goblin Valley mentioned on lists of places to see in Utah. I have seen a few photos but never watched a video of it. Great job showing the park and what a cool place. I was really able to grasp the depth and breadth of the place. We will be traveling between Bryce and Moab next year for the last leg of our planned vacation. I was thinking about hitting this park….but I think I am going to skip it. There is just too much to see and I don’t know if I would have the restraint to skip it. First it will be let’s drive Route 12, then let’s stop in Grand Staircase, and then let’s visit Capitol Reef. Just need to save it for another time. We love to stop at the “World’s Largest” attractions too. They are always a fun quick stop. I have to mention the creepiest roadside attraction I have ever seen. We stayed in Tonopah, NV this summer and they have the Clown Motel. I will let you look that up and have nightmares.

[@AdventuresofAplusK]

There is a TON to see on that drive, definitely an area you have to have restraint if low on time! Goblin Valley is a great stop if you have time someday. The price is a bit high to get in, so being able to enjoy it is key to get your money's worth. But it feels like another planet, maybe even more so than anywhere else we went to in Utah! Oh gosh hahah that motel sounds terrifying!

Looks like you may have camped in the same area I camped on 191 in early Aug (north of Arches)....thankfully the Sprinter a half mile from me wasn't your's (they kept their generator running all night).

So late to the party but work is insane at the moment 😵 Goblin Valley State Park looks amazing.😲😲 We turned off the main road headed for it at lunch time driving between Capitol Reef and Moab, not knowing what was there. After driving for a while and not knowing how long the detour would be and whether it was worth the extra unknown drive time (no phone signal), we decided to turn around. After watching this, I feel like we made a very poor life choice on that day!!! When we got to our AirBnB in Moab, our host asked if we'd visited the state park and on saying no, he did say we'd missed out but didn't give further specifics! 🤦‍♀️ Your video gave me further specifics 😔 The geology is stunning though ❤️❤️ just gives the perfect excuse to return!

[@AdventuresofAplusK]

Oh no!!! It’s very remote out there and the goblins don’t emerge until you’re basically in the park, so I totally understand the choice to turn around. We missed a lot in Utah too, it’s so hard to see it all, but it’s nice to have a reason to go back!

Seeing the great Goblin valley after Galaxy Quest (1999). Thank you sir for showing this.Just one suggestion sir , consider having some drone shots of these scenic places. Your Boise Idaho food trail was just awesome. As a fan of Napoleon Dynamite I always wanted to visit US and states of Idaho and Montana. Hopefully 🔜 Your fan from India .

[@AdventuresofAplusK]

Unfortunately we can’t always drone due to different laws, but we try to as much as we can! You aren’t allowed to drone at any US National Parks and at many US state parks.

I always avoid those type of food trucks but.... dang yall... looks epic!

[@AdventuresofAplusK]

Out of curiosity, why do you avoid them? We find the best tacos (especially) come from trucks!

[@ryanmoore2796]

@@AdventuresofAplusK ignorance I guess... Ya'll are from here.. We have taco trucks on every corner, so I guess I only go to certain ones because I know them. Seeing hoe there are like, a taco truck at every gas station on Lamar... I gotta think some aren't clean... right? Or like... are they? SCARY!

[@AdventuresofAplusK]

We feel ya! We tend to eat at the same places over and over back home. We read LOTS of reviews before eating anywhere (which is why we always love the food haha) to make sure it's tasty, clean, and worth the $!

They have the best melons out there!! sold at the fruit stands in the summer. I used to buy them and take with me as I drove over the road trucker

Gahh we soooo wish we could've tried them. We LOVE watermelon so much!

@@AdventuresofAplusK They not only have watermelon but also Honey dew, Cantaloupe , yellow watermelon, just the perfect climate, sandy soil and cool nights hot sunny clear days for growing season.

Totally agree. Lower Muley is awesome btw. Love that it’s rarely crowded.

[@sewandembmom12]

We are going to goblin Valley, Dead horse point, Canyonlands, & Arches. If you had two days to do one of those parks which one would you give two days to see?

[@AdventuresofAplusK]

Ooo that’s tough! How much hiking do you like to do?

[@sewandembmom12]

@@AdventuresofAplusK We are going to do as much hiking as we can physically handle. Looking at AllTrails at the hikes that are marked ‘easy’ because some of the people in the videos say they are more difficult then they say they are.

[@AdventuresofAplusK]

You could probably do goblin valley and Dead Horse Point the same day. Goblin valley only really needs a couple hours to explore and for Dead Horse Point the hike around the rim only takes a few hours (you could also just go for sunset which is beautiful). I don’t think there is enough to do at either park for a full day. Arches can be done in 1-1.5 days depending on what you’d like to see and we’d give Canyonlands island in the Sky district a full day. Everything there is easy, but there are a lot of overlooks to see. We have guides for both Arches and Canyonlands on our website if you need any ideas or itinerary options.
