Welcome to Travel Tuesday! We’re on our way to the Three Sisters, otherwise known as the last place I visited in Goblin Valley State Park before heading off to my next destination (Capitol Reef National Park)!
The Three Sisters in Goblin Valley State Park
Distance: 0.3 miles
Elevation: 88 ft
Difficulty: Easy
Duration: 30 minutes
Trailhead Address: Goblin Valley Rd, Green River, UT 84525
Parking: Can park along the road!
The Three Sisters is probably the most iconic goblin formation in Goblin Valley State Park. You can take a picture of it off the side of the road from the observation point, but if you have some extra time, you can follow an unmarked trail to check it out!
Dogs are allowed on this trail, but make sure you keep em’ leashed! Like the Valley of the Goblins, this is also a kid-friendly hike stroll!
As with all desert hikes (even if this is barely a hike and more of a leisurely stroll), make sure you have enough water and are properly protected from the sun!
- What’s the last place you visited?

Great little titbit of information. I love the idea of Travel Tuesdays! It’s so catchy. I haven’t been able to have my own Travel Tuesday since all this coronavirus business started so you’re very lucky to be able to do these hikes :)
hehe, it makes me miss traveling a tinyyyy bit less! My posts for Travel Tuesday are all backlogged from my road trip last summer, but thankfully I’ve still been able to do some local hikes every here and there!
It’s great that your still getting out and hiking.
I miss getting out.
I miss it too! My posts from now through next April are all from my road trip last year, but I’ve still been trying to go hiking occasionally on the more remote-ish local trails when possible!
Oooh very cool! I love seeing cool rock formations like this! It’s even better that it is such an easy stroll to reach them. It sounds perfect for when you’re on a road trip!
I have to admit though, they remind me more of busty chatting ladies than goblins!

Hehe, agreed! It was a great little stop to stretch my legs at! :P
I’m gonna have to agree with you on the busty chatty ladies vs goblins! 🤣 very true!
Those rock formations look spectacular! Did weather do that or were they built!
Honestly, I’m not sure–I think it was a combination of both!
I love the names of the various rock formations and three sisters is perfect for this one!

hehehe, me too! This one was definitely aptly named! :P
I love that there is a state park for Goblins! It would be fun to go for Halloween in costumes and take photos.

I’ve never been to Utah! Definitely on my bucket list. This looks like a really cool hike
