One of the most surreal sandstone formations on earth on a 6.5-mile route with no marked trail, the Wave hike. Lottery permit required. Navigation mandatory.
The BLM does a good job with the map they give you. Between that and this guide, you should be more than okay.
There are minimal trail markings on the hike. In general you’re hiking from landmark to landmark. I’ll show you the way the BLM recommends you navigate later in this guide.
Having GPS navigation, like that seen here on a smartphone, will make this hike much easier.
You need a permit to hike The Wave. Don’t show up without one, there are rangers checking for them.
The Wave is one of the most remote hikes you can find; it’s not close to any major city.
