Goblin Valley State Park Visitor's Center

This was a highlight of our Utah trip from the UK. My partner and I were the only two on the 4-hour tour, and our guide Tyler was fantastic — friendly, knowledgeable, and made us feel completely at ease. We really appreciated the demo station before the rappel where he explained all the gear and safety steps. The descent into the Goblin’s Lair was unforgettable, and the view inside was incredible. If you can, send someone down first with a good camera to film the others coming down. The scrambling and wiggling through tight spots made it a fun challenge, but manageable if you’re in decent shape. The free-hanging section was scary and exciting — I took it slow and loved it. Bring 3–4 litres of water each as it’s hot and the walk back has no shade. Also bring a torch if you want to explore the tight caves inside the lair. The rock formations and views were amazing, and the history was fascinating. An unforgettable experience — would highly recommend!
