Slickrock Divide Vista at Capitol Reef National Park in Wayne County, Utah is a moderate 0.2-mile out-and-back hike that features stunning valley views within the Waterpocket Fold.
Hike Description
This hike begins along the Capitol Reef Scenic Drive, at the coordinates provided, and heads uphill along a short trail on the eastern side of the road. The trail leads uphill at a moderate elevation grade and ends at the top of a hill with stunning views into the valley facing both north and south. Slickrock Divide separates two large drainages on either side of the
hill. Runoff from rain is channeled into Grand Wash to the north, and
Capitol Gorge to the south, hence the name Slickrock Divide.
Parking
Hikers will find parking at the coordinates provided, located on the western side of Capitol Reef Scenic Drive.

Before you leave...
MyHikes is an indie web platform aimed to make exploring public trails easier for everyone. The site has no investors and is owned and operated by one person, Dave Miller / Admin. As the main contributor and doer-of-all-things for MyHikes, I share my experiences from hikes and backpacking trips on MyHikes for fun on a volunteer basis and I believe that public trail information should be available to everyone.
It takes a lot of time 🕦, money 💰, and effort (including espresso shots ☕) to run MyHikes, including hiking , mapping , writing , and publishing new trails with high-quality content... along with building new features, moderating, and site maintainance . I simply ask that if you find our content helpful or useful when planning your next adventure that you consider making a small donation to help keep the site running.
You can become a Supporter* (*MyHikes user account required) to unlock perks for as little as $0.83/month with a 1-time non-recurring payment 👍 Or you can simply Donate any amount without a MyHikes user account. Otherwise, telling your friends about MyHikes is the next-best thing to a donation - both quick and free 😄
Thanks for visiting MyHikes and have a great hike! ✌
