Why you should go…

Coral Pink Sand Dunes State Park, between Kanab and Mount Carmel Junction, is a sea of pink sand from eroded Navajo Sandstone that the wind can move as much as 50 feet a year. You can hike the dunes, rent a sandboard, camp, or ride off-highway vehicles on open sand. The dunes are the only home of the Coral Pink Sand Dunes tiger beetle, an insect found nowhere else. The park sits at about 6,000 feet in Kane County.
