БЕЛЫЙ ОБОДНЫЙ ТРЕЙЛ: Большая АВАРИЯ! Пройдите 100 миль за один день на джипе 4x4 или мотоцикле.

100 miles of adventure, 160 kilometers of challenges. Welcome to the White Rim Road. Travel Along a green river, breathtaking canyons, over steep mountains, through a national park, and find a remote and challenging ride you will always remember. We experienced heat, a terrible fall, and endless views, that burnt themselves in our memories forever. Join the ride in this video with a Jeep Wrangler Rubicon and a Yamaha Tenere 700.

Your guide to the White Rim Trail:
To Access the White Rim Trail the city Moab is a perfect place to stay
You need to apply for a permit for the trail in advance. If you want to split up the ride you have to book a campsite several weeks ahead - but if you are not a big planner you can apply for a day permit for the trail early in the morning a day in advance. First come first serves.
You need a 4x4 vehicle or a motorcycle with offroad tires to ride the trail
Plan 12 hours travel time (without calculating your stops) if you want to do all of the White Rim Trail in one day.
Most people ride the White Rim Trail clockwise, starting with the Shafer Trail Road. But we had decided to drive it counter clockwise - because we were told that the most difficult parts of the trail are in the first half of our direction - and we wanted to them as rested as possible.

Here are the Highlights of the Trail:
Mineral Bottom is the easiest part of the trail. Enjoy the first amazing views from the Mineral Bottom switchbacks!
After a while the trail enters Canyonlands National Park. Over 330,000 acres are filled with arches, buttes, mesas, canyons, hiking trails, dirt roads, campgrounds, and overlooks
The Bottom of Hardscrabble Hill is quite sandy
The climb to Hardscrabble Hill is steep and narrow - one of the more difficult parts of the trail! Watch out for oncoming traffic!
The next 25 kilometers you see all the things that you came here to see. Canyon after canyon, one amazing view chasing the other. You will drive by Coleman Canyon Viewpoint, Candlestick Viewpoint, Soda Springs Basin Viewpoint.
After Soda Springs Basin you will start to drive up Murphy Hogback - and the ride will become much more technical. This is probably the most difficult part of the whole white rim road (and the part where we crashed with our motorcycle badly!)
After Murphy Hogback the trail takes you along several scenic canyons again. The Monument Basin Canyon, Gooseberry Canyon and South Fork of Buck Canyon. And from here you will be looking out over the Colorado River for the rest of the trip.
You are close to the end of the White Rim Road, when you spot the Shafer Trail to the top of the Island in the Sky. The Shafer Trail is a 28 kilometer long road and even though it has countless steep switchbacks, it is one of the most easy and fastest parts of the white rim trail. There are even plenty of pullouts to allow for an oncoming vehicle to pass. But you should defiantly not be scared of heights, as there are no guardrails or any other barriers.
