Goosenecks is off the beaten path for most folks, but the road through the Valley of the Gods is even less traveled and just as rewarding. About 10 miles or so from Goosenecks in the west entrance to this 17 mile road that will take you through some of the most beautiful landscape in the area.
It has some wonderful spires and buttes, silar, but different from those in nearby Monument Valley. In contrast to Monument Valley, where there are many tourists (relatively) you might meet up with a handful of other explorers in the Valley of the Gods.
Stop and get out to explore.

The Goosenecks are a destination in between larger National Parks and Monuments. It takes a little dead-end drive towards the spectacular overlook, but it is worth the effort for sure. A close look at what strength (and patience) rivers have.
