    This scenario offers visiting the many national parks of Utah, with their unusual canyons, arches and valleys. Feel their difference and diversity, experience new sensations, and compare the number of stars in the sky in many parts of the state.
    Please note, that the route is seasonal: the main part of the trip lies in national parks, and the roads, cafés, hotels and other facilities there are fully open only from May to September. In case you travel in April or September, please, be aware, that the majority of the venues might be closed.
