Moab Hell’s Revenge UTV Tour: U-Drive 4x4 Adventure Trail

Summary

Moab’s wild sandstone, your hands on the wheel, real adventure

You’ll grab the wheel yourself on Moab’s Hell’s Revenge UTV tour, following a local guide over wild slickrock climbs and narrow ledges. Expect laughs, nerves, and stories from your guide as you tackle legendary obstacles together—with bottled water and support included. The memory sticks around long after you’ve washed off the red dust.

What’s the experience like?

It started with our guide, Jake, grinning at my shoes—“You sure you want to wear those?” he asked. (I didn’t.) We’d barely finished the safety talk before he was already joking about how many people get nervous at the first climb. The Kawasaki Teryx looked like something out of a sci-fi movie, and honestly, I hesitated before taking the driver’s seat. But I figured if I was going to try the Hell’s Revenge UTV tour in Moab, I might as well actually drive.

The first crunch of tires on that red slickrock felt weirdly satisfying—like biting into a crisp apple but with your whole body. We followed Jake’s lead through town (felt funny seeing locals wave at us like we were in a parade), then suddenly we were out where everything glowed orange and silent except for our engines. The wind smelled faintly metallic and dry, and every time we stopped, Jake would point out something—old petroglyphs or how the Navajo sandstone got its color. He had this way of telling stories that made me forget how steep the next hill looked.

I’ll admit: my hands got clammy on those narrow ridges—one spot they call “the Devil’s Backbone” made my stomach drop just looking at it. But there was always someone from our group laughing or swearing under their breath (me), and Jake radioed encouragement whenever we slowed down. At one point, we parked for water and just sat quietly watching the sun start to dip behind those crazy rock fins. There was dust in my teeth and I still think about that view.
