Hiking Jennys Trail
Snow Canyon
Overview
My personal favorite in Snow Canyon State Park, Jenny's Canyon trail is a short, family-friendly outing to a short slot canyon. This is a hike the whole family is likely to enjoy, especially children when they see the deep dark slot. It is short enough, even fairly young children can making the outing on their own. Unfortunately, I have been unable to find the history of the name. I would love to know the story of Jenny, and how she got this amazing short canyon named after her.
Getting There
From the south entrance of the park on Snow Canyon Road, reset your odometer as you enter the park. At 0.6 miles the Jenny's Canyon Trail is on the right.
Route
From the trailhead, the short trail descends to and crosses the sandy wash before making a small uphill climb to Jenny's Canyon. Just before entering the canyon is a junction, with an overlook to the right a short distance, and the canyon on the left.
