Skyline Drive Scenic Backway 26
Skyline Drive State Scenic Backway is actually two distinct backway experiences; combined, the two form a portion of the Great Western Trail.
The North Skyline Drive has a length of 27 miles. Allow one to two hours for travel. The north drive is a gravel road that climbs to the Wasatch Plateau from US-6 at Tucker and undulates south for 27 miles to SR-31. This section provides scenic views into the Lake Fork and Fish Creek Drainages and access to prime fall hunting areas. This road is suitable for passenger cars but is closed in the winter and groomed for snowmobiles.
The South Skyline Drive has a length of 71 miles. Allow five to seven hours for travel. The journey begins on SR-31 and continues 55 miles south to the Fishlake National Forest boundary. I-70 is an additional 16 miles.
Stunning views of Mt. Nebo and other mountains are on constant display complemented by vivid wildflowers in mid- to late summer. This is the backbone of the Arapeen OHV Trail System with numerous routes dropping off Skyline to valleys below.

Elevations approach 11,000 feet and the road is difficult to access until late July as large snowdrifts slowly melt, but this trip is worth the wait. The majority of South Skyline Drive requires high-clearance, four-wheel drive vehicles. It is treacherous when wet.
Those who travel the Skyline Drive will be rewarded with beautiful views of the surrounding landscape, especially in the fall when the leaves begin to change. There are access roads for the Skyline Drive locally at Indianola, Fairview, Mt. Pleasant, Spring City, Ephraim, Manti, Sterling and Mayfield.
