Welcome to Moab

National parks are America’s crown jewels, inspiring awe and wonder. Moab’s iconic national parks, Arches and Canyonlands, attract visitors from all over the world but our public lands include more than national parks. The town of Moab is surrounded by scenic rivers, forests, a state park and thousands of square miles of ruggedly beautiful Bureau of Land Management land.

Our commitment is to respect our beautiful yet fragile environment. We strongly believe that everyone, including us, can be a powerful force in creating a sustainable future. We like that you love it here, but love it like you live here.
