The rappels here are amazing! Mm mmmm tasty!

I was so excited to take my kids to explore this place. I heard great things about it. Yes, the drive is pretty. Yes the red rock is cool. Great for rappelling and pictures ONLY. Its little, like youve seen it all in once youre parked. There really arent any marked trails for hiking. We explored about 4 trails that dead ended against little cliffs, for rock climbing I guess. Kids were done after 15 minutes.

Great spot to bring kids! Lots of sand to play with and rocks to climb on!And the views are fantastic

Amazing views! Went repelling with some friends at sunset. Theres a spire where theres a super cool cave inside it.

Nice little area to walk around and take pictures.

This place is beautiful! We went this past weekend, and it was a lot of fun. The surrounding views are unreal. It’s definitely like a piece of southern Utah with all the red rock. We didn’t go very far on any trail, but there were some fairly little kids that were having a blast running up and down the trail. I will definitely be coming back to explore this little gem just 30 minutes from Provo.There are also a few picnic benches and a grill.

Sadly graffiti has taken its toll on this state park. Fun little stop for the kids. Small arch with a fair photo opportunity. Small bathroom. No water

Nature in its radiance. Dispursed camping available. Amazing vistas on the drive around the 20+ mile loop.Clean creek for a rinse off and clean pit toilets. Lots of cows roaming around.

Beautiful red rock formations. Sadly there is graffiti on the rocks. But overall a very fun experience.

Red Ledges is a great adventure! It is probably not one for little ones unless you had someone with you that knew all the super safe paths, but a great adventure for teens and up. I would have given it 5 stars except for the fact that this trail is not well defined with Cairns or on Google maps, or All Trails. There is no support once you get up there to help you out, and you can end up in spot that are there for repelling and not hiking that might not be super easy to back out of. Even considering that though I gave it 4 stars for the beauty and coolness of the hike.I started up the left side trail and just tried to stay on major trails. It didnt get stressful until the top and then it was a little tricky to get up that last section. At the top there are trails in so many directions. Not sure where many of them go, just the trail I ended up on :). It was so safe and mellow with gorgeous view that I was real happy with this trail..until I got to the east side of Red Ledges. Now this trail is not on Google maps, or All Trails so there is no help knowing what trail is right and what trail is wrong. That is stressful for me hiking when I am on high cliffs. I felt like I was on a safe good trail that was leading me to a safe passageway down. That is what my gut told me, but then I ended up on a ledge and the major trails went off to spots where rock climbers do a lot of climbing and repelling. I got nervous that this safe happy trail was leading me into a scary situation that I might not be able to get back out of. Of course, best thing to do is head back the way you came, so that is what I did and sighed a big sigh of relief when I was safely down. Now Google maps has Red Ledges on the map, but there was also a spot called Diamond Fork Arch that popped up and I knew it was close. I opened up my Google maps (which I had already downloaded the area) and typed in Diamond Fork Arch. It said you are 1 minute away. I had no idea I was so close to I had it walk me to the arch. It was serious just on the east side of Red Ledges. I headed up this trail, and at the top I was shocked to find that my safe path I was enjoying early did indeed merge up to a safe way down...right where I was. There was a little ledge, but I was surprised I missed it. I was happy to have figured that out for next time, but I could not see any signs of the arch. I pulled up google maps, and somehow I had walked right by it. I headed back down again paying more attention to my google map and realizing I am not looking for a huge landmark. It did not take me long to find it. It was tucked into the West side on the cliffs and was beautiful. I was like....now I get why this canyon is called Diamond Fork. It is after this little beauty.

Parking is limited, but the red rock against the blue skies was striking and made for a beautiful hike.

Very nice park. The rocks are all sandstone so climbing is a little slippery but it is very fun.

Perfect for rock climbing/rappelling. Also good for if you just want to go for a hike, go near by a release some stress. Great sceanery.

This is a small picnic area with awesome trails. They are pretty short but fun and steep !

Great for beginner belaying! I think there was some more complicated stuff too but we stayed at the front while we learned.

Totally underrated in my opinion. Its like a little canyonlands but without the drive. Tons of redrock to play around on and have an adventure with. No formal hikes necessarily, but its a great place to go with kids and explore.

Horrible snake problem I would avoid it. We saw 3 dimond backs

Beautiful area for a short hike.Looks a lot like the red rock in southern Utah.

Great spot for some rappelling.

This is a beautiful picnic spot up Spanish Fork canyon...its like a little trip to arches just in our backyard of utah county. The picnic site has a few tables though these are not shaded at all. Theres also a toilet. Im not a rock climber, but there were several lines already in place in the rock and often there are people there climbing for those looking for some thrills. All and all, its a cool place to go and check out.

Great place for rappelling!

I love this place for repelling, night photography, or just to hang out at.

Fun place to rappel. The views at the top are amazing

A fun and close by spot for hiking, climbing and rappelling!

Its so cool dont pass it up.

Really beautiful spot. The rocks are fun to climb and there are so.e good places to let little kids climb and hang from holds. The colors of the rock are beautiful. We came in July on 95 degree plus days, and the trails were sand that was way too hot for our dog to walk on. The picnic areas were not usable because there was no shade...that would be a good improvement!

Great little off the road scenic place with red rocks and pathways into a little canyon. Easy access for the able bodied person. Not wheelchair accessible. Restroom on-site is though. Picnic area. No camping. Day use only.

Great little place for beginners on rappelling.

A great place to practice rappelling with lots of different sized drops and even a few bolted climbing routes on the red sandstone.

Awesome place

Really neat area. Gives a little of that Southern Utah feel, with the red rock formations. Highly recommended, especially of you are visiting Fifth Hot Springs too.

Great rappelling and hiking

Sand, cool rock formations, picnic tables, exploration area. Kids enjoyed it. Not much shade, red ants, and got bit by some flying fleas or something, in the shade of the arch.

Went here to rock climb and boulder. Great place to go and play.Plenty of routes for bouldering and rappelling was definitely a lot of fun. Certainly recommend this place.

Fun place to hike around and less crowded then the hot springs hike. Few good spots to rock climb/repel. Also gorgeous views to the south.

You dont need to go to So.Utah for amazing red rock landscapes and natural arches!

The road getting there can get a little sketchy in the snow, but its still beautiful!

The Sun Face is off a narrow ledge leading to the bottom of a pour off on the east side of the central draw. It used to have a rope assist but thats gone, so be careful

Cool place to practice canyoneering skills

It is gorgeous! The only problem is people not cleaning up after themselves.

Beautiful Location for a short hike or to take pictures. You can hike up on top and it loops around if you dont mind a steep incline.

Beautiful place

Great place for a springtime hike. The views going down the canyon are incredible.

It is gorgeous! A quaint little picnic area with, beautiful hiking spots.

Great place to repel and canyoneer.

Such a fun place to go hike!

A beautiful place to hike.

Beautiful and unique location!

Great place to hike for an hour or two and have lunch. Like a mini southern utah

Beautiful

Beautiful

Great place for small easy hikes. Picnic tables. Bathroom.

This is a great place to do some nice rappelling. Its a little bit of a hike to get to the top with all of your gear, but would definitely make the trip again!

The road to the hot springs was closed, so my group took a detour and climbed on the cliffs for the day! A fun place to just explore and have lunch.

Fun rock climbing and great view

Dusty. Not much shade. The pit toilet really stinks. Tables are good..

Great place to stop and let the small ones run around.

Beautiful, didnt hike though

Great place to spend the afternoon hiking around

Great fun

Great area, wife and I use the parking to cross the road and use the river for our dogs. Unfortunately, some have decided to start marking up the area and defacing some of the cliff face.

Pretty red rocks in a place to climb around on them. Mostly I just go across the road to fish the river.

Amazingly beautiful

Amazing area for picnicking, hiking, and repelling. There is some sport rock climbing as well, though its limited.

Beautiful scenery, some nice climbs

Fun hike

Special for walking

Nice spot.

I was stung by a wasp.

Cool area to do some hiking

Great rappelling

Nice area for a leisurely walk.

Beautiful area with amazing hikes

It’s a pretty cool arch to visit if you’re in the area although it’s a little bit of a drive from the main road. While you’re here if you’re looking for The sun or the moon it’s carved in the rock there’s not much info about it so I attach some pictures with a red arrow. If you look from the parking area straight into the canyon off to the right hand side there’s a black mark on the sand stone from where the waterfalls. If you like towards that black mark and then find a route up even though they can be a little sketchy you will then find at the bottom of the waterfall the sun. Some people reported there being a rope of some type although as of December 2020 there is no longer a rope anywhere to be found there’s a few little sketchy places you can climb up and get to the top be careful .
