Get in

If you're looking for an adventure in nature, look no further than the park located in American Fork Canyon. Accessible by car from Highway 92, this hidden gem is waiting to be explored.

The visitor center, located 10 miles east from Interstate 15, 17.2 miles from U.S. 189, and approximately 40 miles from Salt Lake City, is your gateway to the wonders of this park.

To get here, you have a few options:

• If you're arriving from the north or south on Interstate 15, take Exit 284 (Alpine-Highland exit), then turn east on State Highway 92 and proceed ten miles (16km) to the monument.
• Traveling on U.S. 40 or U.S. 189 from Heber City or Provo Canyon? Take State Highway 92, passing by Sundance Resort and experience the breathtaking Alpine Scenic Loop. Please note that buses and large vehicles over thirty feet are not recommended on this narrow and winding road. Keep in mind that the Alpine Scenic Loop is closed during the winter.
