Labyrinth Canyon is a dramatic corridor of the Green River in Utah that combines winding sandstone channels, cliff-lined passages, and archeological sites. The canyon's signature features are its cd-shaped bedforms, slot canyons, and scattered pictographs and petroglyphs visible at designated sites. The area supports a range of activities: whitewater rafting and kayaking through Class III-IV rapids, multi-day river trips with permits, and near-canyon hiking and camping along the riverbanks. The landscape is shaped by salt and sandstone erosion, which creates undulating surfaces and vivid color contrasts, especially at sunrise and sunset. Because of its remote location and fragile archeological resources, access and visitation should be prepared and responsible, ideally supported by local guides and official permits.
