Goblin Valley State Park is one of the gems of Utah’s state park system. Goblin Valley is located in the San Rafael Desert off of State Highway 24 north of Hanksville. The park gets its name from it’s most prominent feature, thousands of “Hoodoos,” which are also known as “Goblins.” Goblin Valley protects one of the largest concentration of hoodoos in the world. There are several marked hiking trails within the park and hiking is permitted through the valley itself. There is a campground in the park that accepts reservations. Goblin Valley is one of the most spectacular places in Utah and is well worth a visit. Exploring Goblin Valley is exploring millions of years of history.
