Introduction

Canyonlands National Park is located in the southeastern part of Utah, USA, at the confluence of the Green and Colorado rivers. The park was created by years of river erosion and natural erosion, including sandstone towers and canyons. It is one of the world's most famous erosion areas, known for its steep mountain peaks and bizarre rock formations. On September 12, 1964, Canyonlands National Park was officially established, covering an area of 1366 square kilometers. There are no roads here, only trails that can be accessed by off-road vehicles, making it one of the most difficult areas to reach.
