Getting There
Snow Canyon State Park is located just north of Ivins Utah.
If travelling north from St George, take SR18, North Bluff Street, to the Snow Canyon Parkway. Turn left at the light onto this parkway and travel 4.0 miles to Snow Canyon Drive. Turn right and travel north 0.7 miles to the south entry fee station.
If travelling from the north on SR18, exit at the State Park sign and travel south a short distance to the north unmanned fee station. From here it is 4.0 miles to the south entry booth.
Jenny’s Canyon Trailhead is located 0.6 miles north of the south entry station.
The Trail
The trail is flat hard packed sand for the most part. Near Jenny’s Canyon the trail splits with the slot canyon to the left and the overlook to the right. The trail to the overlook requires some scrambling.
