Moab’s Hells Revenge Jeep Ride: An Off-Road Adventure for Enthusiasts
If you’re craving a dose of adrenaline and a chance to see some of Utah’s most iconic landscapes, the 3 Hour Hells Revenge Jeep Ride offers a compelling option. For a $500 fee per person, you’ll hop into a custom-built off-road Jeep and spend three exhilarating hours exploring Moab’s legendary slickrock and rugged trail features. Led by a knowledgeable local driver, this tour takes you deep into the Sand Flats Recreation Area, visiting notable spots like Abyss Canyon, the Colorado River Overlook, and even Dinosaur Tracks—each with its own scenic charm and photo-worthy moments.
What’s particularly appealing about this experience is how it combines adventure with education. The guides are skilled at navigating the technical parts of Hells Revenge, including the infamous Hells Gate, while providing insights into the landscape’s geology and history. Plus, the tour’s stops at key viewpoints make it easy to capture stunning photos and videos.
One of the highlights for us is how the custom Jeeps are engineered for extreme terrain—they offer both power and comfort, making the ride smoother and more manageable than you might expect on such demanding trails. Another big plus is the small-group experience, with a maximum of 4 travelers, ensuring personalized attention and less waiting around.
A potential consideration is the price—$500 per person is on the higher end for a three-hour tour, but if you value expert guidance, top-notch vehicles, and exclusive views, many will find it worth every penny.
