What you’ll see:
Some of Utah’s most mesmerizing rock formations: the hoodoos of Bryce
Canyon. These jagged pinnacles, formed by eons of ice- and rainwater-fueled
erosion, are equal parts scenic whimsy and scientific history — and sure to
captivate both admirers of inspiring vistas and geology buffs the same.
Take it easy:
Learn more about how these
fascinating hoodoos came into
existence during a ranger-led
Geology Talk at Sunset Point.
Work up a sweat:
Descend along the 5 1/2-mile Peek-A-
Boo Loop Trail from Bryce Point for a
walk right through Bryce Amphitheater,
home to many of the park’s most
famous formations.
Don’t miss:
Breathtaking views of some of the park’s largest areas of rock face, easily
accessed from drive-to overlooks such as Bryce, Inspiration, Sunrise, and
Sunset points.
