You will be on the East side of Zion National Park.

Things to Bring

Now, onto the sandy fun! As you enter the park, you’ll be greeted by endless stretches of soft, coral-colored sand dunes as far as the eye can see. Trust me, it’s like stepping into a desert dreamland! The best part? The dunes are perfect for little explorers of all ages—just be sure to bring along plenty of sunscreen and water to keep everyone hydrated and happy.

Bring sleds or snowboards for some good old-fashioned sand dune fun. Pro Tip: Make sure they are hard sleds, because flexible sleds won’t work as well. The park also has some you can rent if you don’t have your own for $25 per board. They can be rented from the Visitor Center.

Whether you sled down the dunes, build sandcastles, or simply roll around in the soft sand, you’ll find no shortage of sandy adventures at Coral Pink Sand Dunes.
