Mount Trumbull School House Road (CoHwy5)

Trail Overview

This is the main road to many adventures south of St. George. The historic one-room schoolhouse at the end of the approximately 50-mile drive is a definite plus--this section of road trailheads many adventures along the way. At the northern end, you will find adventures on both sides of the road in the onX Offroad App. Wolf Hole, Mokaac, Segmiller Mountain, and Black Mountain are just a few of the adventures you can find. Further south, you will find Navajo Trail, Sunshine Trail, Temple Trail, and others that can be accessed. You can visit historic Mount Trumbull from the schoolhouse, and both Tourweap and Whitmore Canyon overlook the Colorado River in Grand Canyon National Park. All of these have many exciting side trails to explore. The schoolhouse has adequate parking for trailers and a primitive public restroom. Don't forget to walk through the schoolhouse and get a glimpse back in time.
