Pulled into the park to find a jam packed lot with very little room for additional parking. After snagging a spot I went into the VC and watched the video. Was disappointed to learn the scenic drive …Full review by Lvtripplanning

Amazingly beautiful place, loved this National Park! We especially loved the yellow Cottonwoods against the red rock and quiet empty roads, very much less crowded in November! Don't miss the 55 mile…Full review by LoriA851

When in Southern Utah visiting national parks, don't miss the lesser known Capitol Reef National Park! Incredible landscapes, which includes ancient petroglyphs! Because it is not a Moab or a Zion, t…Full review by Kristine H

Q:
My husband and I would like to take our sons to Capital Reef. HOwever, we have a 9 year old with ASD who sometimes likes to run off. Therefore, we removed Bryce and Grand Canyon from our list. Can anyone tell us of any hiking trails at this park without drop off's where if he ran he would not get hurt?
A:
It is always best to start your visit to a national park at the Visitor Information office. The staff are best positioned to answer these kinds of questions.

Sorry for the delay in responding....Trip Advisor no longer sends questions to us....I just happened to see your question while deleting messages. I cannot answer your question specifically....during that time of year it could be a problem. HOWEVER....I would recommend that you call Carlton Hotel in Salt Lake City...1-800-633-3500. They could, possibly, give you a better answer. We were there last fall on a VERY busy weekend ...the semi-annual Morman convention. The hotel is 2 blocks from the Morman complex and the hotel was not busy. Paid $79.00 per night and had 2 bedrooms and kitchenette. Hot breakfast in morning. Park City & Olympic Park about 35 minute drive from hotel. See my reviews of both areas on TA.
