Wow. During a visit to Utah's 5 national parks, this state park was a clear highlight, offering incredible amenities, friendly staff, and otherworldly views and ambience. The visitor center will likely be the only place you'll have Internet connectivity, but that's okay, because there is so much to take in here. A great outdoor area, gift shop, and even ice cream. And the bathrooms are super modern with a rainfall showerhead with hand attachment as well. There is even a really cool laundry room located in an old west style saloon building. These are excellent amenities and exactly what you need after a long day of hiking. In addition, the park itself is picturesque, with great design and privacy for most camp sites. Incredible state park. read more

Really pretty view. Easy trail with minimal elevation change. A variety of trails available. First we did Panorama trail and Cool Cave. A lot of interesting spires can be seen. Especially Ballerina Spire is impressive. Cool Cave is interesting place to explore as well. Panorama point is great to check out vast view! After this 6 mile hike, we still had time and we did Angel's Palace trail just 1.5 mile. Reflecting evening sun, the rocks were orange and gorgeous. In December, nobody else was hiking and all solitude! read more

I discovered Kodachrome Basin State Park while browsing through the Grand Staircase Escalante National Monument brochure. Interesting how you find hidden gems and under the radar attractions when you least expect it. So...from the sounds of what was mentioned inside the brochure...I was excited to check this place out. I was making my way along scenic Highway 12 towards Bryce Canyon National Park and had some free time. I thought to myself...why not explore around a state park? And especially for a SP in colorfully red Utah?? Sign me up!!! Kodachrome Basin is situated in South Central Utah, 7 miles south of the town of Cannonville at the end of Cottonwood Canyon Road. Since I had no cell phone reception in the area...I plugged "Kodachrome Basin" into Google Maps well ahead of time just to ensure I'd find the park, especially since there weren't many roadside signs for it. It was a $10 entrance fee for when I was here this past summer of 2021. There are 3 campgrounds located within the park. Although I didn't camp out...I had read it was $20 for a tent and $30 for an RV. Btw, I came here back at the end of July around noon time, and it was so brutally hot outside. It was a struggle to do some hiking. I was chugging down plenty of water. There was no shade along the trails. Overall, there were barely any visitors hanging out. I felt like I had the entire park to myself. Maybe I passed one or two other hikers briefly. So, if you're looking to get away from the more crowded landmarks like Bryce and Zion...Kodachrome Basin is worthwhile. It may not have the majestic surroundings...but it still offers a worthwhile glimpse into what makes Utah special...one of my favorite states in the USA! I'd like to highlight 3 hikes here that I walked along that really immersed myself in the heart of Kodachrome Basin. All 3 were not difficult and relatively short. In total I used about 4 - 5 hours or the latter part of my afternoon simply strolling about and capturing worthwhile photogenic moments. All you need is a half day to cover the park or a full day at the most. - Kodachrome Nature Trail - this was a good introduction to "unique geology found within the basin". It was a real easy start, good for some pictures. It was a 1/2-mile-long loop. - Angel's Palace Trail - this was my favorite hike of all 3 and the park's most popular. It's located right near the Nature Trail and is 1.5 miles long gaining about 150 feet in elevation. This hike guides you to the top of a mesa where you can explore around and capture the basin views from high above. Some of the sights and sceneries looking out upon Kodachrome's landscape setting was inspiring! One thing I must caution about this Angel's Palace Trail..... ------Once I was navigating atop the plateau area, the signs to help guide you were really limited. You could sense which way to turn and where the path continued, but eventually I got confused and lost track of how to finish off the hike. Ultimately, I'd say about 3/4's of the way along...I had to pause in my tracks and return to the way I started. This was a little disappointing because it's not like Angel's Trail was so remote or "off the beaten path". It's a standard hike and I guess I was caught off guard about how the trail ended. Oh well, I played it safe and simply turned around. - Grand Parade Trail - an easy 1.5-mile roundtrip loop on flat ground. This trail will wind its way through the base floor of Kodachrome Basin, whereas Angel's Palace affords you time at the summit. Along the way you'll confront some red rock formations and tall pinnacles worthwhile for picture taking. This Grand Parade Trail was a nice way to end my time here. For those interested, there are a few more trails located throughout the park that I never hiked. They include... - Eagle View Trail - Panorama Trail - Shakespeare Arch - Sentinel Trail - (though I read the arch unfortunately collapsed recently). Overall, I'm really grateful to be able to write this review about my time at Kodachrome Basin State Park. I had zero expectations about what I'd uncover here and yet I left with a satisfying feeling knowing I got the chance to witness more of the wondrous Utah terrain that never grows old in my book. read more

I am so glad we happened across Kodachrome State Park--what a picturesque place. After a 40-mile off-road site seeing experience on Cottonwood Canyon Road--which I highly recommend--we hit pavement, and found this gem just when we got back to paved road. We decided to drive through and check it out. I would love to spend more time here to see just more of this beautiful this park! We were here in mid July, and while it quite warm, we really enjoyed driving around the park and seeing the sites available from the road. We are not really hikers, but decided to try the short half mile Nature Trail hike, which was just perfect for us. Great for families with small kids. We even saw a family with stroller on the hike. read more

Kodachrome Basin State Park is a small state park that it not near other parks and so it may be less visited, which means a much smaller crowd. On your way driving to this park, there were plenty of cows that you may see on the road. Kodachrome Basin State Park is best known for sandstone chimneys. With over 60 of these sand pipes throughout the park, you definitely notice them when you drive into the park (which I do appreciate that there are a lot of paved roads to drive on at this park). Trails throughout the park, many of them are easy to walk. Kodachrome Basin State Park cost $10 per car but is currently only open to residents of Garfield and Kane Counties due to the covid- 19. This park is dog friendly and has thoughtful features for those that wish to camp here. Those features include showers, washer/ dryers, firewood bundles (sold at $6 each) and clean restrooms. My husband, our little girl dog and I came here a few Sundays ago. There were 2 employees playing Bocce Ball in front of the visitor center (assuming they have lots of free time with few visitors. Please note that bocce ball and other games are available for rent at the visitor center). One of them gave us a map after we paid $10. Please note that the restrooms at the visitor center were very clean (had running water, soap, toilet paper). Then we were off and ended up exploring the park. This park actually surprised me in which they are open from 6 am to 10 pm each day. Although this park was small, I did enjoy myself here. Please note that there is no cell phone service in this part of Utah. read more

This is a great state park, tucked away between Bryce Canyon NP and Escalante and Grand Staircase NM, not too far south of Scenic Hwy 12. The park rangers were friendly and helpful. We took the short Angel's Palace hike which had awesome views and wasn't too difficult our little 5 & 7 year olds, but there wasn't much shade. They have several campgrounds that seem to be a lot less crowded than the National Parks. Highly recommend. read more

Kodachrome Basin State Park - Hiking Near Me - Cannonville, Utah

When planning our trip, I came across this place. With a name like Kodachrome Basin, it has to look great, right? Well, we went there and it didn't disappoint. There were a lot of red rocks all surrounded by a rim of much taller white hills. We did the shorter Angels Palace Trail, and it was great. We climbed up onto the rocks and got a great view of that part of the park. There were a few rocks that stood out, often because they were a different color. Overall, we liked it here. If you are in Bryce and finished with that and are looking for something else to do, this would be a good way to spend your time. read more

This is a beautiful state park featuring 180 million year old rock formations. It's also 20 miles south of Bryce and 60 miles away from Zion. Not too crowded as well. Only downside I have to say about this park is that there are only two places you can go for hot showers (Basin campground or at the oasis group site.) There are none located at the Bryce View Campground. Campsite was very spacious and secluded. There are NO bear locks because there are no bears here. Restrooms at our campsite were poorly maintained. Flies were everywhere including inside the toilet. But that's fine if you want to make the short drive to the visitors center for their indoor plumbing. Rangers at the Visitor's Center were also super friendly and helpful. Overall, we enjoyed our experience here in Utah. read more

Definitely one of the best state parks in the United States. I visited in February 2021. The weather was absolutely perfect. I could not imagine hiking here in 100 + degree weather. My favorite thing about this state park is that it is drone friendly. All you need to do is register at the main office, fill out a form, and you're free to fly your drone as long as you do so safely. And the scenery is unimaginable, especially from the air. read more

While staying in the town of Cannonville, UT, we noted on the map that Kodachrome Basin State Park was close, so just before leaving town we decided to make a quick visit (with the threat of rain on the horizon). The name was misleading, to say the least. We expected a variety of colors, or at least a broad palette of reds, golds, and browns; but after arriving we noted that reddish-brown and grey were the primary tones here. Paul Simon would be disappointed. KPSP turned out to be a small park that featured a few interesting spires and sandstone bluffs. It was certainly pleasing, but there was nothing here to rival some of the fantastic landscapes we had seen in nearby Bryce or Grand Staircase. (I admit that by this point we may have been spoiled). The park also seemed more targeted towards camping (mostly RVs) than hiking; it featured only a few, short trails. With rain only an hour or so away, we decided on a two-mile route around Shakespeare's Arch. Unfortunately that small arch (and previously the only arch in the park) had collapsed recently, so part of the appeal was missing. But we hiked anyway, hoping to get a chance to take a side trail up on the slick-rock area above. That last part turned out to be the most interesting and beautiful, at least for me. As the skies darkened, we picked up the pace, making it back to the car just as fat raindrops started making tiny craters in the sandy soil around us. For hiking enthusiasts, KPSP is definitely not a destination spot. Perhaps it's a fine place to camp, though we noted there was very little shade here. When grading on a curve against other southern Utah parks, it just doesn't rank very highly in my book. read more

Kodachrome Basin State Park - up on the slickrock - Hiking Near Me - Cannonville, Utah

Beautiful place to camp and close to Bryce Canyon. We love spending time in Utah and was our first time in Kodachrome. We reserved a spot with full hookups in June and we're thankful we did as we hit a hot week in the 90's. My 11 year old and I mountain biked Panorama trail and Grand Parade. We hiked Angels Palace with our dog which was a nice easy hike up in the red rocks. The Shakespeare Arch hike was beautiful as well and a nice 2 miler with our dog. We camped as Basin camp ground where sites are decently spaced and we backed up to the rocks (site 22) so our son could play all over . Bathrooms are super clean and private clean showers included in the fee.. WARNING..... AVOID COMING IN JUNE! While we loved this campground for its beauty little did we know it was going to be infested with gnats in June. Like BAD! We unfortunately are most of our meals in the trailer because they were swarming and biting. Our poor dog was covered in bites on his belly. Bug spray didn't do much. We found that a Smokey campfire helped a little bit went into Panguitch and cleared out the Ace Hardware of citronella candles, mosquito face coverings and off with high deet. We thought about trying to leave but all the local places were booked and we didn't want to do an RV park. read more

Had never heard of it before but I was blown away at the beauty. Gorgeous and the bathrooms next to are camping site were very clean and nice I didn't use it but my friends said the showers were better than the ones they had at home.

We stayed in Cannonville during part of our trip to Utah. A good destination between Bryce Canyon National Park to one side, and Kodachrome Basin State Park on the other side. We drove about 20 minutes from the KOA campground to the state park entrance. At the gate, we paid an entry fee of $10. Following a very long hike in Bryce Canyon the prior day, we selected two shorter hikes at Kodachrome. The first trail was the Grand Parade. This was a very easy 1.5 mile stroll on the floor of Kodachrome Basin. The trail passed through two box canyons. We enjoyed looking at the terrain which was so different than that of Bryce NPS the prior day. There were lots of cocoa colored hills with erosion onto the trail floor. This hike is completely level. It was enjoyable for a taste of Kodachrome scenery. The trail markers were plentiful and accurate. We drove a minute or two to get to the next parking lot. This would be the spot to reach the trailhead for Angel's Palace Trail. In the complementary guide given us upon arrival, this hike is described as easy to moderate, 1.5 miles in length and an excellent trail for photographers. We would say this is more of a moderate hike as there are a few inclines that may be challenging a bit for some. There are some great views and panoramas to be seen for sure. Midway up the trail, the trail markers became a bit of an issue. Some were toppled over. In some areas there were trail paths without markers. We thought this was a loop, but we had difficulty finding a looping path so once we went a little bit beyond the highest point on the hills, the best choice seemed to be to retrace our steps. We stopped at the visitor's center on the way out. There were a few postcards and clothing items for sale. They had a decent book selection considering this is a smallish center. We were hoping for more information on the park itself; it felt more sparse to me than we expected. A nice additional park to add for those visiting Bryce Canyon National Park. read more

Kodachrome Basin State Park - Kodachrome Basin State Park - Grand Parade Trail view - Hiking Near Me - Cannonville, Utah

Just one day after that infamous rainstorm and subsequent flash flooding of Sept 14, 2015 that killed at least 20 people in Southern Utah/Zion, we were seeking redemption. Unlike for other visitors, Zion that day had treated us well, but we had gotten the h*** out before the storm hit. And the following day, we had spurned nearby Bryce Canyon after recommendations from Yelpers and friends alike told us of great inspiration in lesser known places: From tiny Cannonville, we passed by vast ranch lands and rustic fences, colorful rocky cliffs, seeing occasional free-range cattle wandering alongside the road, some of which found it amusing to direct traffic and require the infrequent traveler to stop while they made a cursory vehicle inspection. A very pleasant drive. The usually lazy Paria River was still swollen, churning up the red and white sandstone to become an angry, pink, muddy, insatiable eating machine. We travelled the thankfully elevated highway that paralleled it for some time, grateful that the storm had now passed, while the watery latecomers still bullied the landscape as they had for millions of years before. The view was magnificent, but we still had no idea of what was to come. At last, we reached the entrance to Kodachrome. So typical of the area, the ruggedly textured walls that surrounded this lesser known park were ribboned with brilliant red and grey and white. But the crowning glory were the solitary spires, *suggestive* monoliths that rose up from the ground and pointed to the skies. Such a pretty little park with a campground in a most perfect spot. I could imagine this spot as a nearly perfect canyon for corralling cattle, maybe even some smuggling. And while we did not stay the night, I have to imagine that on a clear night, the starscape had to be wonderful. With less people, definitely less traffic, much space, there are trails to hike, arches to see, biking, guided horseback rides, and the awe inspiring red chimneys Mother Nature had carved. There are a few cute log cabins for rent (see Redstone Cabins or Bryce Canyon Villas with a Cannonville address) and a small store just outside the park, and inside, a beautiful little campground that offers very limited RV hook ups and more basic camping sites, hot showers, toilets. Reservations are a very good idea. The payoff....priceless beauty and solitude. read more

We were hoping to get into Grand Staircase for some hiking. Stopped at the visitor center in Cannonville and the asked how long the drive would be. "Until you get stuck". It was raining hard all day and the road becomes impassible in the rain. Never mind. Plan B: a tour and a couple of short hikes at Kodachrome. We had the trail absolutely to ourselves and had wonderful views of the surrounding countryside and some interesting scrambling on slickrock. The rock formations here are politely referred to as smokestacks or chimneys. Sure, if you say so. The basin is ringed with multicolored rock befitting the Kodachrome name. You will want to take a lot of photos and show those stacks to your friends. Hear Simon and Garfunkel in the background? Mama don't take my Kodachrome away. read more

Cool state park close to Bryce, which is great to visit if you are in the area and want to explore. It is located right off of the road that leads to Grosvenor Arch and continues on. Some nice mellow hikes and beautiful areas. However, be careful when you choose to go. We had booked three nights of camping here in the beginning of June, and it was super buggy with these little gnats. Now, I am not someone afraid of a few bugs, but this was bad. Even the people that worked there were complaining about this time of year. When you are hiking, they still find you, especially if you stop to take a picture. I found it difficult to even sit outside in the cool evening and soak in the atmosphere of the park. After my poor dog had like 50 gnats swarming his head, we decided to leave. Definitely not the best time of year for tent camping. Would be willing to check out the park again when it is not the seriously buggy season. read more

If you aren't sick of rocks yet, be sure to visit Kodachrome if you are visiting Bryce Canyon. It's not too far (especially if you are staying in Tropic or Cannonville), and it's definitely worth it. It's obviously not at amazing as any of the NP's, but it doesn't have to be, right? We took a pretty short hike through some different landscape and some fans. We also took the opportunity to drive though the park and see some giant pillar (whose name escapes me now). The park offers camping and even has laundry facilities onsite. There are quite a few hiking options available to keep you busy. read more

Fantastic park for tent, or RV Camping. We loved the scenery. Helpful rangers. Trash and recycling bins. They sell firewood for $5.00 a bundle. Very clean campground. Well maintained and laid out well. New building has front load washer and dryers. All top notch. Park has horseback riding for a few. Trails. We had a hookup RV site. No radio Service in the vicinity. AM or FM. No cell service in extended area either. This can be a good break from technology. We took DVDs in our RV. Park is good for kids. Take razor scooters. read more

Part of me doesn't want to write this review because this place is so amazing and I want to keep it a secret! It's about a 40 minute drive south of Bryce, but it is soooooooo worth it. The views are incredible! The pit toilets are by far the cleanest we've ever seen. The campsites are well maintained, large and private. And the stars at night...no words!!!!!! This place is truly a hidden treasure! read more

This place is DOG FRIENDLY!! Go to the Angels trail and make the 1.5 mile hike up. The view is amazing. Elevation changes quickly and there are some steep ledges! read more

We just camped here for three nights and had an absolute blast except for the bugs (more about that further down). The campground is well maintained with tons of trails and small hikes that are family and adventurer friendly. The bathrooms and showers are clean and well maintained. The dish washing sink is a total bonus!! Our only complaint was that in June the no see ums (flying, biting gnats) show up for their annual feast and campers are the main course. Obviously nothing the facility can do about that but skip June if you can. read more

Small state park on the way to Grosvenor Arch. Really interesting place that was easy to see. We walked a nice visitors trail with lots of interpretative things to read. The central part of the park is very easy to walk around and explore if you don't have the time or inclination for long hikes. They really ought to re-name the park. Free corporate sponsorship, for those who remember Kodak. read more

Now that Kodak announced today that they're discontinuing Kodachrome photographic film, at least this park will live on with its cool name.

This watershed (basin) near Bryce with somewhat similar rock formations was renamed for the film brand used at the time by National Geographic magazine photographers - who liked this place. The park is rather small - and costs $20 to enter - but is less crowded than Bryce. If you plan on visiting other Utah State Parks in the area or this one several times within a year, it might make sense to get an annual State parks pass. National Parks passes do not include State parks. read more

Kodachrome Basin is a park located in the Escalate National Park. Travelers from all over the world come to camp, hike, photo of the 180 million of geologic rock formation. The park overall was kept clean. It was not crowded on the weekend. So it was a great place to explore for a few hours. If you like arch rock formation similar to Arches National Park, this is the place to check out. Check out Angel's Trail. It's an easy 3 mile loop with a slight incline at the beginning. There aren't a lot of trees. So most of the hike is under the sun. Make sure you wear plenty of sunblock and bring water if you plan to hike in the summer. Overall, this is a popular spot to check out the solitary spires also known as monoliths where you can see ribbons of red and brown shades of rocks. There are also 27 campground sites with modern and clean restrooms. Make sure you make a reservation in advance. read more

I can't complain this state park had no signal for cell nor tv . You don't have time to sit around to do Facebook! You get out and explore more! This park got name from Kodak Film Corp., for its' beauty. We trailed ,took lots of pictures and drove out cottonwood to see the Arch but the most fun we had @ Kodachrome was horse back ride! We highly recommend. The guide Mark? was great. The price is much much less than the others. This was my first time and I would do it again in a heart beat! read more

The ranger we spoke with in the visitor center (Brandon) was incredibly helpful and knowledgeable about the area and the park. This Basin has incredible spires and colors and the mornings and evenings are true pleasure for your eyes and lenses.

Little gem of a state park in between Capitol Reef and Bryce. Great place for a picnic and a short hike or two. Read the other reviews to hear more about the park - I wanted to recommend the trail ride! We really had no plans to do this but stopped by the little shack and decided to try an hour-long ride. We're definitely novice riders and I'm not really a horse lover, but we had a great time on this trail ride. The wrangler Hap selected horses to match our level of experience and his partner Emily gave us a short lesson. The horses were well behaved and the wrangler was especially patient with our adult daughter, who has Down syndrome. He ended up leading her horse on a short line, and she was a little fearful at first but after a few minutes she was having a great time. We thoroughly enjoyed the trail ride which was a loop on the western side of the park. Halfway thru the ride we stopped and Hap took our pictures against a beautiful backdrop of red sandstone. Surrounded by awesome scenery, we had an unexpected adventure in an out-of-the way park. read more

Very picturesque little place in Utah. We visited after going to Bryce Canyon National Park. The colors at sunset on the faces of the carved rock structures are vivid. This park has the right name. It is uncrowded and appears to be a nice place to hike (we didn't do it). This is worth the 20 minute detour drive from the main highway. You get right up close to the bizarre shaped (if not sexually suggestive) formations. Your car will get dirty. read more

Kodachrome was our last stop on our trip this week. We drove the Scenic Byway Utah 12 from Escalante to the State Park that morning and were afforded some beautiful views. The state park was very nice, but a little bit of a disappointment compared to all of the other beautiful parks we had visited earlier in our trip. The park is pretty small, so definitely make sure you visit in weather that allows you to get out and hike the trails - I am sure that makes a visit to this park even better. read more

Beautiful park! The facilities were great, new and clean. Staff super friendly and helpful. Loved being here and getting to explore the quiet solitude along the great trails. read more

We love to combine Kadachrome Basin State Park and the Willis Creek Slot. The Willis Creek Slot is not too far from Kadachrome. Both areas can be visited in one day giving us all the sightseeing our hearts desire. We normally check on the weather and make sure there is absolutely no rainfall. Willis Creek is a 4.8-mile round trip hike. More than half of the hike involves numerous creek crossings and in some places directly in the creek. Perfect for a sunny day out. And I have to say this slot is Gorgeous. Combined the 2 areas makes for a perfect day hiking and enjoying the Bryce area. Check out our YouTube when we hiked the Willis Creek Slot: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=M4UPmkeWXJc read more

This is the 2nd time we came here to visit the park in 5 years. 1st time, it was raining. I'm sorry but I am unfortunately too old to hike the trails and we did not come to camp overnight. So we paid the entrance fee, (thinking we could drive around the park and see the sights) drove the 1 mile of paved road just to find basically everything was closed except the trails. It took us a whole 5 minutes to return to the entrance and ask "what is there to see here?" I was not impressed at all. This is a tiny, tiny Utah State Park. The park staff are friendly enough but it was about as interesting and exciting as driving thru a Wal-mart parking lot except you have to pay to get in. It is not even about the $$ paid, it about the principle of receiving absolutely nothing in return. I understand that everyone else gave it a 5/5 review. I'm sure others will think I'm wrong... but I am not. We drove down for a day trip from Utah County and this place is way out-of-the-way. If you come here just know that the camp sites are quite expensive and this is a hiking park. If you come here to drive around (such as Arches National Monument or Canyonlands) to see the sites, you will see everything within 5 minutes..that's it. You would be better served to Google the photos, instead. This was one of the worst experiences I've had in a "State Park". read more

Outstanding state park at the end of outstanding Cottonwood road in the Grand Staircase Escalante National Monument. Camping is $16 a night, which seems high, but the site is excellent with showers (though did not use) and includes the $6 entrance fee which is well worth it because there's a few great hikes in here into the formations and just the general surroundings are great. Plan to be hot. General store is there for supplies. Very clean bathrooms with good soap. A nice place to spend at least one night and see the park before checking out other areas. The loop hike Panorama Trail with the "Secret Passage" add-on is a must along with the Grand Parade and the one to the arch. read more

After visiting Zion and Bryce, we stopped by this park to check it out. There is an $8 enhance fee and a very bumpy dirt road that forks to an arch or to chimney rock. The views were pretty nice, but felt it was not worth the entrance fee or very bumpy ride on the dirt road covered with rocks. read more

A beautiful, quiet, small campground that is off the beaten path. Made reservations online, and was glad I did, because I could see which were the better sites. All of the sites are nice, but the ones on the outside of the loop are more spacious and don't back up into another site. Bathrooms are clean and showers are a nice perk. Only took a short hike, as we were hiking in other places during our stay, but I'll have to come back to try some other trails. It was hot and the gnats were biting, but that's to be expected in this area in June. It's also only 20 miles from Bryce Canyon, making for a much quieter alternative to Bryce's crowded campgrounds. read more
