Road Scenery:
30/40/50+ mile vistas! High Desert. Red Rock. Geological riff! Natural Bridges National Monument! Keep a camera hanging from your neck while riding...USE IT..you'll want to remember this ride "FOREVER"!!.
Motorcycle
Road Quality:
Great road. NO TRAFFIC!! Elevation changes. MUST TRAVEL BOTH DIRECTIONS TO APPRECIATE!!!
Start in Southeast Utah near the town of Blanding, UT at the intersection of US Highway 191 and Route 95. Then simply take Route 95 west into Natural Bridges National Monument. The one way trip will be about 40 miles.
If you want to continue on, Route 95 runs West-Northwest to Hanksville, Utah. All of Southern Utah is part of the Moab/Canyonlands/Monument Valley/Bryce Canyon Basin. There are NO bad roads here! This area is a "MUST SEE"/"MUST RIDE" AREA!!! May regret giving my opinion, as I/We plan to return to this area from Rhode Island!

I HAVE RODE THIS PART OF UTAH TWICE WILL DO IT AGAIN IN MAY 2009. THIS PART OF SOUTHERN UTAH IS SPECTACULAR. THE ONLY THING BETTER WAS LAST YEARS RIDE FROM BOISE TO JASPER ALBERTA CANADA.
We are heade out to Colorado and Utah for 2 weeks of riding in June and was wondering about this Highway. Thanks for the Info. Anyone know if there is any gas between Blanding and Hanksville
As a fellow Rhode Islander i must agree, we just made this trip in Sept. 08 and the roads of southern Utah are like nothing we have ever been on before.
