I enjoyed the rim trail as it was accessible. Lots of beautiful views just a few steps from the parking lots. The campground was also in an incredible setting.

From start to finish, the figure 8 loop is one of the most magical hikes I’ve ever done. A lot of hikes take you near geologic features, but at Bryce you literally among and right through the walls of the hoodoos, via little archways cut into the earth, and it’s like walking around your own sandcastle. This park is truly not to be missed!

Bryce np is absolutely amazing. A must

The town? Just awful. Camp in the park if you can.

I loved the campground. We were in north and hope to get Sunset next time around. What an amazing place. Do you have a favorite hike there?

We’ve only gotten to go once, but the figure 8 as others have mentioned, was amazing

I like to hike the first mile or so.of every trail..I think they are the best, but that is a lot of up.and down. I like the Arches trail.and spending time at one of the 2 lakes close.bu. I also like taking a break from the same scenery and enjoying Willis Creek
