Bryce Canyon National Park

An awe inspiring place to visit. The views, from everywhere are amazing. The shuttle buses were running frequently, many people however choose to drive the scenic drive. This means parking is very tight. We did the Navajo/ queens garden loop, even at 9am it was busy !!

Bryce Canyon is a really cool place to check out! Here's why you'll love it:
It is known for its tall, skinny rocks called hoodoos. They look like big pillars sticking up from the ground, and they come in all different shapes and sizes. It's like stepping into a fairy tale land! There are lots of spots in Bryce Canyon where you can see amazing views of the hoodoos and the area around them. Some spots are really high up, so you can see really far, while others are closer to the ground, where you can see the rocks up close. Bryce Canyon has lots of hiking trails that take you through the hoodoos and let you explore the park. Some trails are easy and flat, while others are more challenging with steep climbs and narrow paths. There's a trail for everyone, no matter your hiking experience. There are lots of animals in Bryce Canyon, like deer, squirrels, and even mountain lions! You might see them as you explore the park, so keep your eyes open. At night, Bryce Canyon is one of the best places to look at the stars. The sky is so clear and dark that you can see thousands of stars shining bright. It's like having your own private light show. Bryce Canyon is a must-see place. It's beautiful with lots of cool things to see and do, from hiking to stargazing. Don't miss the chance to visit this amazing park!

Bryce Canyon is a marvelous wonder of the southwest. It was far busier than we thought it would be on a Tuesday morning but the views are worth it to the end of the road. If you can't arrive early and want to see the first couple of overlooks, you might as well take the shuttle. Amazing park and amazing staff that run it quite well.

Absolutely gorgeous! A must visit! This should be on everyone's bucket list! I've been here a couple times, this last time mid May, the day was hot and the night was cold tenting it, but not unbearable! Such a cool place with amazing views! Make sure you get in the park early to get into good parking spots! I'd recommend doing the smaller hikes first so you can park because the parking spots at the shorter hikes are smaller and fill up really fast!

must-visit for you, unique geological formations, diverse hiking opportunities, and excellent stargazing make it a standout destination. It will offer you a memorable experience with its awe-inspiring landscapes and serene natural beauty.

We visited Bryce during the first week of April. Luckily, it was snowing lightly on the day of our visit. You will get to see some amazing views especially if you visiting during the time of the year when this area is snow capped. There are some good hiking trails. If you’re not interested to hike, you can still enjoy the scenic views from the overlook area that’s about a mile stretch (Sunrise to Sunset point).
We will definitely visit again.

Bryce canyon is a very underrated national park. It is beautiful. Easy access to amazing vistas. Well maintained trails. Spent a week enjoying awesome sunrises and incredible night skies. The color of the hoodoos change from light pink to deep red depending on the sun angle. This is one of my top five favorites. A truly magical place.

Mesmerizing. Beautiful hoodoos. The best part was the Thor’s hammer naturally curved and it was one of the best life time experience watching that . The hoodoos have different colours on it ( red for iron oxide ) , green for copper and pink for magnesium. It is a must visit for all .

Genuinely incredible national park, some of the most unique structures I've ever seen. The scenic drive is packed with amazing lookouts each showing a different angle with completely different landscapes. The drive also features amazing hikes, many of which are incredibly easy. Watch out for the winter season as many attractions are closed during it. Although the snow is very pretty on the formations during springtime.

This is wonderful. I liked it very much. We went down of the canyon and it was 500 feet’s below the top. It was so hard to get back again. We enjoyed the moment though weather was rough.

Amazing views of the canyons and hoodoos on the trails. It's great that you can hike to see different perspectives of the canyons at different angles to give you that sense of awe.

We hiked from the Sunrise Point to Sunset Point (loop) and the views were spectacular. Since it was mid-March, there is still snow present so you'll be sloshing around in mud (like red clay).

Bryce Canyon National Park is a marvel of nature, renowned for its striking hoodoos—tall, thin rock spires that create a surreal, otherworldly landscape. The vibrant colors of the rock, from deep reds to bright oranges, are particularly stunning at sunrise and sunset, making the canyon a photographer’s paradise.

The park offers a range of well-maintained trails for all skill levels. The popular Navajo Loop Trail takes you down into the canyon for an up-close view of the hoodoos, while the Fairyland Loop provides a longer, more immersive hike through the park’s diverse terrain.

Wildlife is abundant, with mule deer, prairie dogs, and various bird species often spotted throughout the park. At night, Bryce Canyon’s dark skies offer some of the best stargazing opportunities in the country.

The visitor facilities are top-notch, and the park staff are friendly and knowledgeable, always ready to help. Whether you’re an avid hiker or just looking to enjoy some breathtaking scenery, Bryce Canyon National Park is a must-visit destination that promises unforgettable memories.

You already know Bryce is incredible so why you reading reviews? 😅

We enjoyed it more than Zion

If you have one day, do the figure 8 trail. Was about 7 miles and took us a while but allowed us to experience all the best parts of the park

Such a unique and cool experience!!!! We had the best time going to all of the viewing points and seeing the canyon and hoodoos from all aspects! We really enjoyed mossy cave and getting to hike up to the “windows” formed in the rocks and playing in the creek. Highly recommend going up the creek here and seeing what all there is away from the crowds!

We did the Queen’s Garden & Peek a Boo Trail. After conquering all of the switchbacks to get to the bottom of the canyon we briefly contemplated which trail to do first. Our decision was it really didn’t matter because it’s a figure eight. Right? WRONG! Unlike us, definitely do Peek a Boo first. It’s a grueling hike with a lot of elevation gains followed by down hill hiking. It seemed we were up and down for the entire hike. However, the views were magnificent! At the end of Peek a Boo Trail you can easily continue on to Queen’s Garden which is a much easier, although not easy, beautiful hike. At the end of Queen’s Garden we were back up at the parking lot where we started. Being us, we did Queen’s Garden first and had to, once again, take the switchbacks down so we could hike Peek a Boo. When we were done with Peek a Boo, we had to take the switchbacks UP to the parking lot. Our route made the hike much harder than it would have been had we done Peek a Boo first!

I'm not joining the "One Star Review " club... this place is amazing. Here in late May. Highs in the 70's, near 80 and lows in the 30's, near 40. It's awesome. Plan to do the short hikes off of the Scenic Drive and you'll get all the views in one day. Check out Guide Along for a perfect tour guide.

Bryce National Park was very beautiful and totally worth the visit. You can hike in the hoodoos and visit using the shuttle or your own vehicle. Vehicles 23 feet and longer will have restricted access during Shuttle bus hours.

Absolutely breathtaking! Bryce Canyon National Park is a true marvel, offering awe-inspiring vistas at every turn. Trekking amidst the majestic hoodoos was an unforgettable adventure. Already planning my return trip!!

Bryce Canyon National Park is my favorite National park so far, after Canyonlands because of the massive beauty of the view. The park is not too congested like Zion National park so you can actually enjoy hiking and viewing the beauty of it. Still need to go back, there’s so much more to explore in Bryce. Super recommended! 👍

Bryce Canyon National Park is an extraordinary geological wonder with its stunning hoodoos, natural amphitheaters, and vibrant colors. Its unique landscape offers breathtaking views and opportunities for hiking, photography, and stargazing.
visitors should be prepared for high altitudes and varying weather conditions, especially in the winter months. Overall, Bryce Canyon is a must-visit destination for nature lovers and outdoor enthusiasts alike.
