Travel south on Interstate 15 to Nephi, In Nephi take Highway 28 to Salina, at Salina take Interstate 70 past Richfield to the East Zion/Bryce Canyon Exit. Take Highway 89 south to Mt. Carmel Junction, approximately 5 miles past Mt. Carmel Junction still on 89, take the Coral Pink Sand Dunes Exit, and drive 12 miles west to the park entrance.
Beautiful place, really peaceful (except for the crazy noisy motorbike), breathtaking place and fun (you can slide the sand hill)... A great place to be on a sunny day..
This is such a beautiful underrated park that doesn't come up at the top of attractions but it's definitely a must visit.
It's so much fun to slide down the sand dunes and it's all very inexpensive; a $10 entrance fee and you can rent a sand board for $25.
Bathrooms are scarce but there's lots of parking a cute little gift shop at the entrance.
Really nice sand. But - is it possible that everybody is abele to drive loud and fast over the sand dunes in (!) the park? Wouldn’t it be enough to allow that only outside? Prices in the park for all kind of rentals absolutely overpriced like in a typical tourist trap. Have never seen this before in a state park.
A beautiful gem amid the more famous parks in the area that’s definitely worth your time & a visit! Even if you don’t have an OHV to cruise around on, there’s plenty to do and quietude to be found! I enjoyed a gorgeous sunset & sunrise from the higher dunes that are easily within walking distance from the parking lot. Renting a sand sled was a super fun way to explore the dunes - hiking up & sledding back down! Really enjoyed the gorgeous views, beautiful flowers and signs to learn more about this fascinating landscape.
I tent camped in the park which was great! Trees for shade, soft ground, protected from the wind, clean facilities, hot showers, and nicely quiet.
I’ll be back!!
Experience the dunes for sledding, hiking, and nature. The red sand is stunning, especially with a dusting of snow. Dogs love playing here. Open year-round, best in spring, summer, and fall for milder temperatures.
