The Toadstools is a very unique area near the Paria Ranger station, about 40 miles east of Kanab. The toadstools themselves are sandstone formations that have a harder caprock that has protected a softer, more easily weathered tower. The towers range in height from a meter or two to 10+ meters. This is a very fun family accessible place to visit, and photographers will delight in the unique colors and shapes that dot the area. Two different areas are described here. The first, the Red Toadstool area, is easily accessible by all, and provides close-up views of some great toadstools. The second area described, the White Toadstool area, requires a bit more walking, and shows most of the towers from a distance. Note: Many of the toadstools are very fragile. Please do not climb on them.
