Scenic Drives

BEAVER CANYON SCENIC BYWAY (HIGHWAY 153)

KIMBERLY/BIG JOHN BACKWAY

The Beaver Canyon Scenic Byway runs up and into the Tushar Mountains and offers abundant pull-offs for enjoying the grand views. The state-designated Kimberly/Big John Backway is a turnoff from Highway 153; this gravel road provides views of the highest peaks in the county.

The Pass Road

The Pass Road was originally created to transport cattle raised on the verdant meadows of the Beaver Valley across the Mineral Range to Milford to be sold and shipped off by train. Today, this Scenic Backway provides spectacular scenery of the Granite Peaks in the Mineral Mountains. At the top cattle guard crossing, there’s a pull-off for a short hike to Granite Peak Reservoir.
