Cane Beds Corral: Where to Go, What to Pack & Helpful Tips

Any car is safe to get to us at Cane Beds Corral and all of the National Parks; however, if you plan on visiting BLM land (ex: Vermillion Cliffs Wilderness) or off-beaten hikes double-check to make sure you don't need a 4x4, truck etc.

If you plan on visiting more than 2 National Parks within a one-year window, you'll save money by purchasing the annual park pass (most park entry fees range from $20-35/each). They can be purchased at all National Park entry gates and are good for 2 people for a full year of park fees!

The shuttle at Zion National Park can be the biggest hiccup on your trip. Tickets are first come first serve and the line for the shuttle can take up a lot of your day. We suggest booking electric bikes before your visit, they allow you to skip the shuttle, enjoy the park at your own pace, and bike right up to the trailheads. If you are set on the shuttle, be sure to make it to the park by 7:30AM to avoid parking issues.

Although we offer a lot of great luxuries, we want to remind guests that you will still be "camping" in a canvas tent in the desert and there are environmental factors that are out of our control. A few things we suggest packing: - layers to sleep in if you tend to get cold at night - bug spray, citronella candle - flashlights to get around at night - a bath caddy to carry your toiletries to and from the bathhouse - slippers

In our grilling area, we offer: 3 gas grills with a burner attachment, a skillet, a pot to boil, all necessary cooking utensils, roasting skewers, a kettle, a french press for coffee, coffee mugs, a cutting board + knife set, basic seasonings and oils. We also provide a large cooler to all tent guests. For our tent guests, we do not provide: personal cutlery, plates, bowls or cups, ice. Items we suggest you purchase: - coffee (we provide a french press and kettle to boil water) - foil - ice - plates, cups, and plasticware - storage tupperware if needed for extended stays

AllTrails.com is our top suggestion for researching trails/hikes. AllTrails gives insight on trail locations, time it'll take, difficulty, what views to expect, and a map overview of the entire trailhead. It is free to use but if you purchase a subscription, it allows you to download the map and trails to ensure you always know where you're headed even if you don't have service.

Throughout your time in this area, you are bound to lose cellphone service. Make sure to download all routes if possible and screenshot any maps, directions, etc. to minimize the risk of getting lost.

Southern Utah is one of the most geographically diverse regions in the United States with so many lesser-known/less crowded places waiting to be explored! If you are an experienced traveler looking for off-the-beaten-path spots, we suggest: Vermilion Cliffs National Monument (White Pocket), Paria Townsite, Red Cliffs Desert Reserve, Gooseberry Mesa Biking Trail, Grand Staircase National Monument (Wirepass to Buckskin Gulch Trailhead), Snow Canyon State Park, Sand Hollow State Park (cliff jumping & swimming)
