You really can’t go wrong when it comes to choosing a sunset spot in Canyonlands National Park, but the Green River Overlook is arguably the best place to go. Located in the Island of the Sky district of Canyonlands National Park, the Green River Overlook faces west towards the Henry Mountains and Utah’s canyon country, providing the perfect view of the setting sun.

The overlook is a short walk from the parking lot. While this can be a popular area to watch the sunset, there’s space to spread out and take in different views of the expansive canyons below.
