These Lava tubes are intriguing, exciting and gorgeous! They are in the heart of Dixie!
The Lava tubes at Snow Canyon Park are just outside of Ivins/St. George Utah. Drive up Snow Canyon and pay the $6 to the ranger fee. Follow the road up to the Lava Flow Whiterocks sign. The trail starts there and goes for about 1 mile there and back. There are two big lava tubes to see, one larger and one smaller. The larger tube is more of a hole in the ground, and it would be difficult to manuever in and out of the tube without good equipment. The smaller tube goes back into ground for only 20-30 ft. It makes for a nice scramble over big rocks in the dark. Mosquitos are pretty crazy down there. If you keep following the trail outside, you'll reach a lookout point that give a good view from inside the canyon.
