Hi,

My wife would like to go to Kanab, Utah in order to work at the famous animal sanctuary and I am wondering if I could bike there.
Either road bike or gravel or MTB....

Anybody knows if biking is an option there?

Bring MTB and Road.
If you'll have free use of your own vehicle, you can ride locally or take the bike to some epic things in the area:

Road:
Roads are really beautiful and epic in scale of the environment. You can get some good climbing in the area. See strava and/or mapmyride for local routes.

That is funny, my missus has wanted to visit the sanctuary for a while as well, and I had wondered about the prospect of combining the trip with some good riding. Would love to hear an update on how the trip goes for future reference!

Yes.

Get the MTBProject app and download the trails in Utah. You can also use their website.

Plenty of MTB riding near there, if not right in town. St. George, Hurricane and Virgin are a half hour west, maybe a bit more.

Also right near a bunch of National Parks.
