Embrace the magic of the summer solstice in Moab, Utah, where the days are long, and the adventure is endless. Portal Resort offers the perfect base for your explorations, featuring luxury vacation rentals, casitas, and brand-new adventure cabins. Here are three unique summer solstice experiences to make your stay unforgettable.
Dead Horse Point State Park offers some of the most stunning night skies in the country. Just a short drive from Village Camp Moab, this park is an International Dark Sky Park, making it the perfect place to witness the celestial wonders during the summer solstice. Bring a telescope or simply lay back and enjoy the breathtaking views of the Milky Way and countless stars.
Kick off the longest day of the year with a sunrise hike to Delicate Arch in Arches National Park. This iconic arch is especially magical at dawn, with the first light illuminating the red rock formations. The hike is moderately challenging but well worth the effort for the awe-inspiring views and the sense of tranquility that comes with being one of the first to reach the arch in the morning.
Experience the thrill of white-water rafting on the Colorado River. Moab’s proximity to the river makes it easy to book a guided rafting tour, perfect for both beginners and experienced rafters. Enjoy the stunning scenery and the exhilaration of navigating the river’s rapids. It’s an unforgettable way to celebrate the summer solstice and cool off from the desert heat.
After a day full of adventure, relax at Portal Resort. Enjoy our luxury vacation rentals, casitas, and brand-new adventure cabins, all designed to provide comfort and convenience. Whether you’re planning a short getaway or an extended stay, Village Camp Moab is the ideal home base for your summer solstice celebrations in Moab.
