Devil's Kitchen is the surprise of the Nebo Loop: a small amphitheater of red-and-orange spires and hoodoos, eroded out of soft sandstone, sitting incongruously among the aspen and fir near the southern end of the drive. It looks like a fragment of Bryce Canyon that wandered two hundred miles north and got lost in an alpine forest — which is more or less why people call it Utah's "little Bryce."
A short paved trail, an easy few hundred yards, leads from the parking area to a railed observation deck on the rim of the formation, with interpretive signs and a framed view of Mount Nebo off to the west. It is wheelchair- and stroller-friendly, shaded most of the way, and one of the most rewarding ten-minute walks in the state.
