Cannonville is 26 miles east of Panguitch on Scenic Byway 12 and 11 miles east of the Bryce Canyon National Park entrance. There is no public transport. A car is essential. The nearest major airport is St. George Regional Airport (150 miles southwest) or Salt Lake City International Airport (260 miles north). Most visitors arrive from either Bryce Canyon or from Escalante to the east.
The road through Cannonville (Scenic Byway 12) is paved and maintained, but the side roads into Kodachrome Basin and along the Cottonwood Canyon Road are unpaved and can be impassable after rain or snowfall. Check road conditions at the Kanab BLM visitor center or with the Utah Department of Transportation before heading onto dirt roads.
