Rim Trail, Bryce Canyon National Park

Highlight • Trail

The Rim Trail encircles the Bryce Canyon Amphitheater and gives spectacular views into the canyon. The trail is 5.5 miles in length, starting at Fairyland Point in the north and extending to Bryce Point farther south in the park. There are many benches located along the path for a quick stop to enjoy a picnic while taking in some of the greatest views on this planet.

Sunrise Point

Highlight • Viewpoint

Located just a short walk from the parking area, Sunrise Point offers absolutely stunning views into Bryce Canyon. The area is aptly named for being a fantastic spot to view the sunrise, as the eastern facing cliff faces catch the early morning rays and glow in various shades of reds and oranges. From the viewpoint you will look out on to Boat Mesa and Sinking Ship, both iconic hoodoos in the National Park.

More refined than Grand Canyon, the colors and the robustness; we think it's just a little nicer. Everyone knows Grand Canyon and sometimes they have not even heard of Bryce Canyon, an absolute must!

Rim Trailhead (North)

Highlight • Trail

Rim Trailhead (North) is a great starting point for a run or a walk along Bryce Canyon’s famous rim. The trail gives you wide views over the hoodoos right from the start, with a mostly flat and runnable surface if you head toward Fairyland Point. Expect big views, soft dirt underfoot, and plenty of reasons to pause and take it all in.
