Forrest Gump Point

A roadside spot at mile marker 13 on US-163 in Utah, where a straight highway runs toward the lone buttes, the place where Forrest Gump stopped running in the film.

Forrest Gump Point is on US-163 in Utah, about 13 miles from the Monument Valley area. The straight road runs toward the cluster of buttes in the valley. This is where Forrest stops running in the film Forrest Gump. Visitors often stand in the middle of the road for photos, but this is a busy national highway with constant traffic. Be careful of oncoming vehicles, and do not linger in the lane. It is best to take pictures from the shoulder. It is about 25 km from the Visitor Center.
