About
Bureau of Land Management
Unlike the other trail systems in St. George Field Office area, the Hurricane Cliffs Trail System wasn't developed because of its awesome slick rock or incredible views, and it isn't inside a protected area such as a Reserve or Area of Critical Environmental Concern. This trail system developed because it's an area that is just plain fun to mountain bike.While not the legendary riding of the Gooseberry Mesa National Recreation Trail (under whose shadow this trail system sits), the Hurricane Cliffs Trail System has its own rewards. From smooth, rolling terrain to rough, rocky slabs, there are over 36 miles of great riding single-track in the system.Be sure to check each trail you plan to visit as there are user group restrictions. For example, the Canal Trail is only open to hikers, and equestrians are restricted to existing roads and the Chinatown Wash.

We tented in site 48. Sites 40 - 48 are on a side road off of the Sheep Bridge Road. At the beginning of May, all sites were full by evening. They are designated for tents, but are accessible to RV's. For tenters, the low brush offers a bit of privacy for bathroom activities. You can hear the highway, but it's far enough away to not be annoying. You can get to sites 40-46 with a carefully driven passenger car. 47 and 48 require at least medium clearance.
