Top Questions Answered
How difficult is the hike to The Great Chamber? Is it suitable for all fitness levels?
The Great Chamber requires a short but steep climb up a soft sand dune to reach the main alcove. While the hike is not long, walking on sand can be challenging. We recommend this tour for those with moderate fitness levels, but our guides provide tips and assistance to make the climb easier. If you're up for the challenge, the reward is well worth it!
Can kids and older adults join this tour?
Absolutely! While the sandy climb can be tricky, we’ve had families with kids and adventurous older adults successfully make the ascent. We recommend this tour for children 6 and up, but younger kids who enjoy hiking in sand may also love the experience. If you're unsure, our guides are happy to offer support and advice based on your group’s needs.
What makes The Great Chamber special compared to other destinations?
The Great Chamber is a hidden gem that few travelers get to see. Unlike popular tourist spots, this massive sandstone alcove is remote and serene, offering breathtaking views without the crowds. The contrast of the golden sand against the towering rock formations creates an otherworldly scene that’s perfect for photography and exploration.
How do we get to The Great Chamber? Can we drive ourselves?
The route to The Great Chamber involves deep sand and rugged off-road terrain that requires a high-clearance 4x4 with experienced driving skills. Most standard vehicles won’t make it. With Expedition Kanab, we handle all the off-road navigation so you can focus on enjoying the adventure stress-free.
What should I bring for this tour?
We recommend wearing lightweight, comfortable clothing and closed-toe shoes with good grip, as sand can be soft and warm. Bring sunglasses, sunscreen, and a hat for sun protection. We provide water, but you’re welcome to bring your own drinks and snacks. And don’t forget your camera—this is one of the most photogenic locations in Southern Utah!
Is this tour safe? What precautions do you take?
Yes, safety is our priority! Our guides are highly trained in off-road navigation and first aid, and our UTVs are well-maintained for a smooth ride. We carry first aid kits, water, and emergency equipment to ensure a safe and enjoyable experience for all guests.
When is the best time to visit The Great Chamber for the best photos?
Morning and late afternoon offer the best lighting for photography, as the sun casts dramatic shadows and enhances the vibrant colors of the sand and rock formations. Our guides know the perfect timing and angles to help you capture stunning shots of this incredible natural wonder.

Adventure and Amazing Views
The entire trip was a great experience. We loved driving the ATV but the hikes were amazing too - the Great Chamber and Peekaboo Slot Canyon. We had a great guide, Matt, who took fun and well framed pictures for us - which are lasting memories of a fantastic trip. We would definitely come back and do this same trip again. The owner Reese was also very nice and this would be good for families too. They tailor the trip to the participants.

What an awesome tour!
What an awesome tour! Justin was knowledgeable, and we really enjoyed how he went
out of his way to take group pictures. The machines were well-maintained, and we felt
safe. We had contemplated doing the Great Chamber and Peekaboo slot canyon on our own—so glad we didn’t. Our kids loved the Can-Am and haven’t stopped smiling. We
would book this again in a heartbeat!
