Learn more about Hanksville

Fuel up at Stan's Burger Shack where locals swap tales of UFO sightings before heading into the Martian landscape surrounding this tiny desert outpost. The Mars Desert Research Station northwest of town offers a glimpse into how humans might someday live on the Red Planet. Nearby Goblin Valley State Park presents a playground of mushroom-shaped hoodoos that seem designed by nature's most whimsical architect. Factory Butte rises from the desert floor like a monument to geological patience. Adventurous types can book river trips through Cataract Canyon's legendary rapids. The Henry Mountains - once the last mapped mountain range in America - provide a rugged backdrop to this frontier town where gas stations double as souvenir shops and the night skies remain gloriously unpolluted.

10/10 Exceptional

These cabins were so wonderful you won't believe it! We stayed in seven different places during our trip across the southwest and this was our favorite! Great mattresses and a full kitchenette! Also, a nice restaurant called Outlaws Roost with great southwestern food is close by.
