Fall has officially arrived in Southern Utah, and at 9,600 feet, Brian Head Resort is one of the most stunning places to experience the season’s colors. The high elevation brings crisp air and sweeping views of fiery foliage framed by red rock landscapes, Dixie National Forest, and nearby Cedar Breaks National Monument.
Visitors can enjoy the scenery from several scenic routes that showcase the region’s striking contrasts. National Scenic Byway 143 winds directly through Brian Head, while Highway 148 cuts across Cedar Breaks National Monument with breathtaking overlooks and aspen groves glowing gold. These drives are some of the best in the state for fall foliage.
Brian Head offers not only the brilliant display of autumn leaves but also an unbeatable vantage point to take in Southern Utah’s diverse landscapes. From mountain meadows to sandstone cliffs, the combination of colors creates a one-of-a-kind seasonal spectacle.
For those planning a trip, updated conditions are available through Visit Cedar City’s Fall Color Report.
