Cedar Breaks National Park
Brian Head is only five minutes up Highway 143 from one of our nation's most beautiful and captivating national parks: Cedar Breaks. Cedar Breaks boasts an impressive half-mile deep gorge of Utah's famous natural red rock structures, with lush evergreens, and clear night skies that are every astrologist's dream. During our winter season, cross country skiing and snowmobile trails are provided to get from Brian Head to the park.
Bristlecone Pond
Bristlecone Pond is Brian Head's newest edition! The pond sits in the heart of Brian Head. The shops in the Village Mall are nestled near the pond with the Giant Steps ski run looming behind it. The pond is a hotspot for activity at any time of year. Residents and tourists alike go kayaking, ice fishing, swimming, and paddle boarding.
Brian Head Peak
Our peak has the best view around at 11,307 ft. From the top, one can see into neighboring states such as Arizona and Nevada. The stone hut on the very tip of the peak was built between 1935 - 1937 by the Civilian Conservation Corps; ever since its construction, it has become an icon on the peak. It not only provides a taste of Brian Head's past, but also a breathtaking view. (Literally, breath taking since it is so high in elevation).
NOTE: the road to the summit is accessible in the summer and fall seasons only.
