Windsor Castle is a stunning natural rock formation located in the Grand Staircase-Escalante National Monument in Utah. This point of interest is a must-visit for anyone traveling to the area.

The formation is named after its resemblance to a medieval castle, with its towering walls, turrets, and battlements. It is made up of Navajo sandstone, which has eroded over time to create this unique formation.

Visitors to Windsor Castle can enjoy hiking through the beautiful surrounding landscape, including the colorful sandstone cliffs and canyons. The area is also home to a variety of wildlife, including desert bighorn sheep, coyotes, and golden eagles.

Another interesting aspect of Windsor Castle is its geological history. The formation was created over millions of years as sediment was deposited and then eroded away by wind and water. This has resulted in a layered structure that can be observed in the rock faces.
