Zion's Hidden Gem - A Scenic Drive Through the Backcountry 8K Utah National Park @AdventureEveryDay

Uploaded April 2025 | Updated September 2026, 2 weeks ago

In this video we make a scenic drive through Zion National Park's backcountry in the lesser-known area of the park along Kolob Terrace in southwest Utah. The road drifts in and out of Zion National Park as we make our way from the red desert cliffs up to the pine tree forest and Kolob Reservoir where we enjoy aerial shots of the water. We then head back south on Kolob Terrace back to the town of Virgin, Utah where we started out.

Note: All aerial footage was recorded outside of the National Park per park rules.

This route follows part of the historic Oregon Trail, where pioneers once trekked in covered wagons seeking new beginnings. As we wind through the mountains, the scenery offers breathtaking views of river gorges and lush greenery, eventually transitioning into the high desert of Eastern Oregon. The journey concludes in Boise, Idaho, where the modern cityscape contrasts beautifully with the natural beauty we’ve witnessed, providing a perfect end to a drive steeped in both natural splendor and historical significance. This drive was filmed in early autumn.

We decided to skip the standard I-17 highway drive and take the more scenic route from Sedona to Phoenix. Our scenic drive begins in the red rocks of Sedona and head south on Red Rock Scenic Road, then after a few minutes on the highway we head down Route 260 in the mountains toward Payson. This scenic path winds through the breathtaking landscapes of the Coconino and Tonto National Forests, offering a refreshing change of pace with lots of green and incredible mountain views. As we transition onto Route 87 and descend toward the Valley, the scenery transform into the classic Sonoran Desert. We’ll see the horizon fill with iconic, giant saguaro cacti as we make our way into the heart of downtown Phoenix.

A hidden gem near Kanab, Utah. We begin our journey driving through the towering red and vermilion cliffs of Johnson Canyon, eventually stopping to capture breathtaking aerial drone views of the nearby Cottonwood Canyon landscapes just off the road. The adventure truly begins as the pavement ends. We transition onto the rugged Glendale Bench Road, a dirt path that cuts through Grand Staircase-Escalante National Monument. The condition of the unpaved road was great, anyone should be able to drive it as long it its not wet. The drive concludes as we wind down a steep, twisty road with incredible overlook views, descending into the quiet town of Glendale, Utah. #scenicdrive #hiddengems #cinematicdrone Chapters: 00:00 - Intro 01:10 - Johnson Canyon 06:55 - Scenic Side Views 07:30 - Johnson Canyon 12:35 - Scenic Overlook 14:05 - Johnson Canyon 16:00 - Scenic Side Views 16:45 - Johnson Canyon 22:15 - Grand Staircase Escalante 26:00 - Aerial Drone Scenic Views 32:50 - Grand Staircase Escalante 35:30 - Scenic Side Views 36:10 - Grand Staircase Escalante 37:05 - Unpaved Glendale Bench Rd 48:40 - Scenic Side Views 49:10 - Unpaved Glendale Bench Rd 55:50 - Scenic Overlook 56:35 - Unpaved Glendale Bench Rd 1:05:45 - Scenic Overlook 1:06:10 - Unpaved Glendale Bench Rd 1:09:00 - Descent into Glendale 1:11:55 - Glendale, Utah 1:13:42 - Outro Enjoy our work?

Our drive begins near Pagosa Springs, Colorado, as we head east on U.S. Route 160. This route takes us deep into the San Juan Mountains, climbing toward the summit of Wolf Creek Pass and crossing the Continental Divide and driving through multiple mountain tunnels before descending into the town of South Fork. Wolf Creek Pass is legendary for its beauty, but its equally known for being a scary and dangerous drive. The steep grades and sharp switchbacks demand total focus, a reality we were reminded of when we saw an overturned semi-truck along the way. To fully capture the scale of this landscape, we stop at scenic overlooks for a closer look and include drone footage that reveals the pass from a whole new perspective.
