About Glendale
Glendale is a quiet, scenic town tucked into southern Utah’s Long Valley, right along Highway 89. At nearly 6,000 feet in elevation, it enjoys cooler summer days and crisp mountain air compared to the lower desert. Lush pastures, leafy cottonwoods, and red rock bluffs line the East Fork of the Virgin River, giving the area a classic rural charm that stretches back to its nineteenth-century ranching roots.
The town makes a great home base for anyone who loves the outdoors. Zion National Park, Bryce Canyon, Grand Staircase-Escalante, and Coral Pink Sand Dunes are all close enough for quick day trips. Residents enjoy dark night skies, wide-open views, and a friendly, small-town atmosphere, with everyday essentials nearby in Orderville and larger stores down the road in Kanab.
