If you’re traveling through Utah for a fun-filled road trip, there’s one destination you shouldn’t leave off of your list. Bryce Canyon National Park is home to some of the most beautiful scenery the country has to offer, and it is an ideal place to visit with the family in your SLC car rental.

Location

To reach Bryce Canyon National park in your SLC car rental from Affordable Rent-A-Car and Sales, follow these directions from the NPS website: “Take I-15 south to UT-20 (exit 95).
