Sandy beaches and shady coves perfect for fishing both contribute to the popularity of Deer Creek State Park, which borders Provo Canyon Scenic Byway (US 189). In addition to Deer Creek Reservoir, the main feature of the state park, the road highlights Bridal Veil Falls, one of stunning Provo Canyon’s many Instagram-worthy natural features.
Just south of Heber City, the Provo Canyon Scenic Byway runs alongside picturesque Deer Creek State Park, where windsurfers, boaters and anglers enjoy the fantastic blue waters of Deer Creek Reservoir. As the roadway continues southward, it parallels the Provo River, a favorite of fly-fishermen, and winds through Provo Canyon, home to Bridal Veil Falls.
