Rim Loop Trail | Dead Horse Point State Park, Utah

Discover the Rim Loop Trail in Dead Horse Point State Park, Utah! SUBSCRIBE to our channel (it’s FREE) for more travel adventures. 👇 More info in the description below.
Dead Horse Point State Park is located 32 miles from Moab and only 14.5 miles from the Canyonlands National Park Island in the Sky District. It is a must-see when visiting around Moab. Dead Horse Point State Park is composed of a small peninsula extending off a huge plateau and has amazing views of the Colorado River and the La Sal Mountains. The park gets its name because it was supposedly used as a natural horse corral and some horses died from exposure.
We visited Dead Horse Point State Park twice and we've enjoyed hiking the Rim Loop Trail. The Rim Loop Trail consists of the West Rim Trail and East Rim Trail. When hiked together, they make up a 6-mile loop. We started the hike from the Visitor Center and hiked the trail in a counter-clockwise direction.

[@NicoleHikesalot]

Awesome Iove this park. The campground looks awesome. And you just can't beat the views. I love the sunrise. Basin overlook looks awesome too

[@WithinHikingDistance]

It really is a great place to visit in the area. It is not as visited as Island in the Sky and the views are stunning. It is a peaceful place at night and perfect to watch the stars. Thank you so much Nicole.

[@treklinda1309]

Very interesting and pleasant to watch. Thanks for sharing 🌹

[@WithinHikingDistance]

We appreciate it, thank you so much!

[@BrandonOnTheGo]

Wow! Just the introduction timelapse is beautiful! What an amazing place! Not going to lie, pretty jelous! I really love that style of climate and environment. That canyon though! Thanks for sharing!

[@WithinHikingDistance]

It is a pretty special place, and overlooked by many people visiting the area. There is hardly anyone one the trail and most people will just go directly to Dead Horse Point. It's a must-see if you visit the area. Thank you so much Brandon!

[@BrandonOnTheGo]

@@WithinHikingDistance Look forward to heading out that way one day! Take care!

[@MyTravelChannel-RO]

Wow dead horse point state park 👍🏻

[@WithinHikingDistance]

It is a gem Yobee, definitely worth seeing when visiting Moab. Thank you very much!

[@waterfallmadman]

Awesome views! It seems like a great place to camp.

[@WithinHikingDistance]

You're right Leon. It can get pretty windy at times as it is on a Mesa but that didn't stop us 😊 Thank you!

[@beebeesfuntasticadventures6110]

Place looks amazing and beautiful too.

@@WithinHikingDistance so, it's the DEAD HORSE POINT viewpoint shows all the "curvy" water of Colorado River? Correct?

[@omarkhanlilcurry]

One of my favorite places.

Such an awesome state park! Thanks for all the pointers! Definitely adding it to the list...the ever growing list haha. We need more time in a day! - Shane

[@WithinHikingDistance]

Ah ah, great to hear your list just got a little longer! ;D The views are just terrific there, and it is still under the radar. We love it. Thank you so much Shane! Have a great week guys.

[@ConsidertheWonders]

We loved Deadhorse! We stayed there just a few weeks ago and the trails around the park are breathtaking! Great review y’all 🤙

[@WithinHikingDistance]

Sweet! We are so glad to hear you've enjoyed this amazing park recently, that's awesome. Hopefully, it wasn't too windy when you were there 😀

[@KattieMetChris]

We'll have to make sure to stop by next time we're in the area. Canyonlands was breathtaking and this looks just as beautiful!

[@WithinHikingDistance]

It a stunning area. You may want to consider stopping at Moab someday for a week or two. You would enjoy it 🤙

[@KattieMetChris]

@@WithinHikingDistance Definitely! Looked amazing!!

[@RuggedMile]

Great video! We visited in June but didn’t do any of the hikes you did. Will be sure to check them out next time! Thanks for sharing!

[@WithinHikingDistance]

How nice you were there in the summer! It might have been way too hot to hike 6 miles... We visited twice in October and it was perfect for hiking. Thank you very much!

[@AlanMETALMAN]

Amazing place to visit, with great views and what a place to camp. Superb views from the Rim Overlook and that is some drop down to the Colorado River. Cheers Alan

[@WithinHikingDistance]

The views are amazing! We could see so many stars at night because it is so remote. We had a great time. Thank you so much Alan!

[@SwiftyTravels]

Such stunning views! Less crowds is a thumbs up for me👍👍 Ill have to put this stop on my list. So gorgeous!!

[@WithinHikingDistance]

It is one of our favorite stops in Utah. It is great to hear you added it to your list Lisa. Thank you very much!

[@AllenOxendine]

You guys have some great experiences with your son, thanks for sharing..

[@WithinHikingDistance]

We are so glad we have these videos so he can watch them. He was too little to remember then and he loves to watch the videos with you. We appreciate you Allen, thank you!

[@adventuringoutdoorswitheric]

That's looks like a super cool state park to hike and camp out at! The trails itself look pretty flat but the overlooks were spectacular. I definitely have to visit this place in the future. Little man looked like he was too cool for school wearing a sunglasses and walking around like a boss 🤣. I enjoyed the video guys and I am hoping to use this as a guide in the future! Thanks for sharing another wonderful outdoor adventure with us!

[@WithinHikingDistance]

It totally is! The night sky was amazing too. The trail is really easy with good mileage. We took a break at each viewpoint to soak in the views. This was our second time we hiked and Little Man was hiking a lot more. Yay! Thank you so much Eric. We appreciate you, always.

[@darrenermey8739]

Great video man! I was on the fence on which park i wanted to visit on my trip to Utah this summer and this video sold it.

[@WithinHikingDistance]

Good to hear. It's a great park to visit. Be sure to also visit Canyonlands (Island in the Sky), which is short drive away.

[@KathysOutdoorAdventures]

Dead Horse is such a great state park to visit. Thanks for sharing its beauty. I hope you guys are doing well I have been off for about 3 months and miss watching your videos. Happy New Year!

[@WithinHikingDistance]

You are so kind, thank you Kathy! This is a favorite stop when we are in the area. We hope you are having a good holiday break. We wish you and your loved ones a Healthy New Year!

[@21Swayzee]

Way to nail that time lapse in the intro!!! Views are insane!!!! Hope you guys are off to a great holiday start! Keep rocking it.

[@WithinHikingDistance]

Thank you so much Mattias! Like many other visitors, we almost skipped it but we were recommended to go by a local. We are so glad we did. Doing good here and enjoying mild temperatures so far. Hope you and your fame are doing awesome. Take care!

[@21Swayzee]

@@WithinHikingDistance nice, always great to get little tips like that. When it comes time for me to take the kids into the western states, I know who I'll be contacting for some tips!!! HA! We are all well! And doing awesome. But this time of year we are missing skiing!

[@WithinHikingDistance]

Definitely reach out us when travels in the Western US is back on the agenda! Great to hear your are all well. You guys are so creative, you will probably find a good alternative to it :D

[@daciatravel.647]

Wonderful video!

[@WithinHikingDistance]

Thank you

[@RoamingwiththeRamsays]

Spent some time in the area but ran out of tie before having a chance to get there. We want to go back and spend more time at Arches, Canyonlands and get to Dead Horse State park. Thanks for sharing this awesome place.

[@TravelSmallLiveBig]

Stunning place & views! I get a little creeped out being so close to the edges... made the mistake of reading that "Death in The Canyon" book about all of the people who have died at The Grand Canyon... while I was at The Grand Canyon - ha ha!! I should have read it when I got home.

[@WithinHikingDistance]

That's a great tip Heather, thank you for sharing it! ;D The action camera always make us look closer to the edge that we actually are. Understandably, the hike is not dog friendly. Thinking of you as the second lockdown is starting. Hugs to you 3!

[@ZENderista]

Amazing landscape! Is the trail on a big plateau or something? There seems to be a place with extreme temperatures in winter and summer. Great video as usual!

[@WithinHikingDistance]

Yes, the trail is on a plateau, which is why it has all these amazing views. It is at a high elevation (1800m). We have only been there in fall but would agree with your observation. Thank you very much José!

are the trails hard to follow? some parts looked like i could barely tell where the trail is lol. im new to this 😝

[@WithinHikingDistance]

The trail is pretty easy to follow. There are signs pointing you in the right direction and there are cairns on parts the trail so that you know you're on it.
