You crest a sandstone fin and the valley opens—crimson ledges, silent washes and a sky so wide it seems to push the horizon back. Dust rises behind the UTV as guides call out line choices; the machines answer with a low, eager growl. This is the Top of the World Rally, a four‑hour UTV/ATV outing that places riders on slickrock and desert trails just outside Zion National Park and within sight of Sand Hollow State Park.
