Viewpoints
Second in line to the view from our Cedar Bend deck is catching a sunset at the Castle Valley Overlook, less than 9 miles from the cabins. There are two places you can get a glimpse of this extraordinary view.
First, is from the La Sal Mountain Loop Road. Drive just 4 miles North from the cabins, and there will be a pullout on the left. This may be accessed year-round. 
The second, and most incredible overlook, is via the Sand Flats Road, and is less than 9 miles from Whispering Oaks. The road is unpaved. If you enjoy viewpoints, this one will take your breath away!
Looking to hike your way to an incredible panoramic view? Check out the trails at Oowah Lake or Geyser Pass area just a few miles south of Whispering Oaks Ranch. There are a number of trails in these area that will take you to 11,000 ft and higher. Geyser Pass is also a great spot for snowshoeing and cross-country skiing in the winter.
Nearby Lakes & Hiking
Warner and Oowah Lakes are within 6 miles of Whispering Oaks Ranch and offer beautiful mountain scenery, hiking trails, and fishing. From Oowah lake you may hike up to Boren Mesa for an awesome view of the mountains and canyonlands. Clarks Lake may also be accessed from this trail head.
Early summer is an awesome time to drive to Warner Lake as the views are beautiful, the wildflowers are in bloom, and you’re almost sure to see deer and lots of birds….keep that camera handy!
Arches & Canyonlands National Parks
Arches & Canyonlands National Parks may be accessed in less than 1 hour from Whispering Oaks Ranch. These parks are what attract so many visitors to the Moab area every year. Many of our guests feel that the beautiful drives from the parks to our cabins are well-worth the extra minutes in the car….and the panoramic views!
Some of our favorite hikes outside of the National Parks are Corona Arch, Fisher Towers, and Morning Glory Bridge (Grandstaff Canyon).
