Bryce Canyon National Park

The Top Ten List for Bryce Canyon

Red Canyon
Nine miles before the entrance to Bryce Canyon is where the red hoodoos of Red Canyon crop up.  Be sure to stop and look at the hoodoos and visit the Red Canyon Visitor Center.  Red Canyon is a section of Dixie National Forest.

Mosey Cave Trail
The Mosey Cave Trail is a great family hike that follows a stream for much of the hike and then forks, one path leading to a desert waterfall and another to an alcove or cave.  To find the trailhead, drive past the entrance to Bryce, looking for cars and a pull-out on the right. The trailhead sign is small and hard to see from the highway.

Bryce Canyon Scenic Drive
The scenic drive in Bryce Canyon is a must do adventure.  Be sure to stop at all the scenic pullouts.  Natural Bridge is one of the more interesting as it offers different views of Bryce Canyon.

Naturalist Notes

Rim Hike
Walking along the rim at Bryce Canyon is a great way to see the hoodoos and fins in the amphitheater.  This path is called the Rim Trail.

Queens Garden Trail
Combine Queens Garden with with the Navajo Loop Trail to make it more exciting.  Begin at Sunrise Point and exit via the Navajo Loop.

Peekaboo Trail
Combine the Navajo Loop Trail with Peekaboo for a round-trip that is almost 3 miles. The trail begins at Sunset Point.

Hat Shop Trail
The Hat Shop Trail is a unique Bryce Canyon Trail since the hoodoos at the end are unlike those found throughout most of the rest of the park.  The hike is about a 4 mile round-trip. 

Tower Bridge Hike
The Tower Bridge Trail is a 3 mile round-trip. Begin north of Sunrise Point.

Fairy Loop Hike
The Fairy Loop Trail is about an 8 mile round-trip that begins north of Sunrise Point.

Under the Rim Hike
The Under the Rim Trail is a 23 mile round trip backpack. Some can do this in one day, but it is not suggested.

Note:  The trails in Bryce Canyon tend to be strenuous because they begin at the rim and venture down into the amphitheater.  This leaves the uphill return for the strenuous section of the hike.
