Activity itinerary
Bryce Canyon City

This is the main road into Bryce Canyon National Park, and there’s no lack of activities here!
Ruby's Inn
- 15m
- Admission ticket not included
Ruby’s has several properties, a general store, three restaurants, and an “old town” mini-mall with gift shops, an ice cream parlour, and a working gem mine! They also offer many unique ways to see the park: horseback riding tours, guided quad bike tours, bike rentals, and even helicopter rides.
Bryce Canyon National Park
- 2h
- Admission ticket not included
Make stops throughout the park in both the Bryce Amphitheatre and Bryce Canyon Scenic Drive.
Fairyland Point
- 10m

Here you’ll get a first look at the famous hoodoos of Bryce Canyon. You’ll learn how they’re formed, how they got their name, and the important role they play in the conservation efforts of the national park system.
Bryce Canyon Visitor Center
- 15m
- Admission ticket not included
After you pass through the front gate, be sure to check out the Bryce Canyon Visitor’s Centre. Here you’ll have the opportunity to explore the small museum and learn more about the geology and cultural heritage of Bryce. Be sure to check out the award winning 20-minute film “Shadows Through Time” and the large gift shop! On your way out, check in with the friendly park ranger staff about the many educational talks and tours they offer daily
Bryce Canyon Scenic Drive
- 2h
- Admission ticket not included
This is a wildly popular way to see everything that Bryce Canyon has to offer. The scenic drive will take you 18 miles to Rainbow and Yovimpa Points; the southernmost but highest points of Bryce Canyon. Along the way, you’ll have the opportunity to hear more stories of the people who discovered Bryce Canyon and championed it to become a National Park. On the way back, we’ll stop at the other 7 viewpoints: Black Birch Canyon, Ponderosa Point, Agua Canyon Viewpoint, Natural Bridge Viewpoint, Farview Point, Piracy Point, and Swamp Canyon. From these viewpoints, you’ll not only see hoodoos but also other unique rock formations in brilliant colours, flora and fauna that make up the rest of Bryce Canyon. The Scenic Drive is a nature-lover’s dream!
Rainbow Point
- 5m
- Admission ticket not included
Rainbow Point is actually the highest point in the park at 9,100 feet above sea level. You’ll be able to see most of Bryce Canyon from here, and on a clear day, you might be able to see all the way to the Grand Canyon, which is over 300 miles away!
Yovimpa Point
- 5m
- Admission ticket not included
After taking in the breathtaking views from Rainbow Point, take a very short, paved walk over to Yovimpa Point to see even more layers of the Grand Staircase.
Bristlecone Loop
- 30m
- Admission ticket not included
Bristlecone Loop Trail is one-mile long and will take you through a forest of Bristlecone Pine trees, which are some of the oldest trees in the entire world.
Black Birch Canyon
- 10m
- Admission ticket not included
Stop by Black Birch Canyon Viewpoint to get a look at the spectacular Ponderosa Pine trees and the Navajo Mountains looming in the distance.
Ponderosa Canyon
- 5m
- Admission ticket not included
Another great viewpoint of the forest areas of Bryce Canyon and the large, hulking Ponderosa Pine trees.
Agua Canyon
- 10m
- Admission ticket not included
You’ll get a great view of some of the more well-known hoodoos at Bryce Canyon from here. Keep your eyes peeled for the Backpacker and the Rabbit, and see what other shapes your brain can come up with! This is also a great viewpoint to take photos of Thor’s Hammer, the most famous hoodoo.
Farview Point
- 15m
- Admission ticket not included
At Farview Point, the air quality is so pure that you’ll be able to see clear into Arizona! Keep an eye out for the colourful rock formations and breathtaking views of the far-off Navajo Mountain.
Piracy Point
- 15m
- Admission ticket not included
Then take an enchanted walk through the path to Piracy Point, which is unofficially known as the Hansel and Gretel trail. Weave through sun-dappled Ponderosa and Bristlecone Pines, and keep an eye out for squirrels and songbirds! Once you get to Piracy Point, take a look into the distance and see if you can spot the cliff formation that looks just like Blackbeard’s ship!
Swamp Canyon
- 10m
- Admission ticket not included
Swing by Swamp Canyon and take a look at one of the only viewpoints in the park that has its own natural water source. Because of this, the vegetation is green and lush all around the hoodoo formations here. If you’re an experienced hiker, you may want to try out the Swamp Canyon Loop Trail here; it’s a 4.5-mile hike that descends into Swamp Canyon and connects to the Under-the-Rim Trail before looping back around. If you’re not prepared to take such a strenuous hike, hang out at the top of Swamp Canyon and keep an eye out for California Condors overhead.
Bryce Amphitheatre
- 1h
- Admission ticket not included
The most-visited part of the park is the Bryce Amphitheatre. There are 5 viewpoints that make up the Bryce Amphitheatre: Sunrise, Sunset, Bryce, Inspiration Points and Paria View. The largest concentration of hoodoos can be found here, and some of the most popular into-the-canyon hikes are located here. Photography buffs, star-gazers and hikers of all skill levels love everything that the Bryce Amphitheatre has to offer!
Bryce Point
- 15m
- Admission ticket not included
The first two points that make up the famous Bryce Amphitheatre. Bryce Point was the favourite spot of Ebenezer Bryce, and it may just become yours, too. Here you’ll be able to see a large maze of hoodoos. For the advanced hikers, Bryce Point is the trailhead for the Peek-a-Boo Loop trail, a 5.5 mile loop trail that will take you all the way down into the canyon floor, past the Wall of Windows and around the Three Wise Men hoodoos.
Paria View
- 10m
- Admission ticket not included
Paria View is a fantastic place to watch for Peregrine Falcons! Keep your eyes peeled for large birds that look like they’re wearing grey pajama pants. If you’re an active cross-country skier, Paria View is also home to the challenging Paria Loop, which is popular with winter sports enthusiasts and only open to visitors during snowfall (usually December-February).
Inspiration Point
- 10m
- Admission ticket not included
Inspiration Point is often called “The Silent City,” because the rows and rows of hoodoos look like people frozen in time. There are three smaller viewpoints at Inspiration Point; the lower, mid, and high points. You have to hike up a moderate but rocky incline to get to the highest point, but beautiful views can be seen from any of the points. Take a half hour or so to hike the easy-to-moderate Rim Trail that takes you to Sunset Point.
Sunset Point
- 10m
- Admission ticket not included
Some of the most iconic and photographed views are here at Sunset Point. Take a look out into the canyon and get another glimpse of the famous Thor’s Hammer and the rich reds and pinks of the iron oxide that gives the hoodoos their vibrant colour. Sunset Point is the main trailhead of one of the most popular hikes at Bryce Canyon--the Navajo Loop Trail. This one is a quick 1.4 miles and is easy-to-moderate with a few slight elevation changes. This will follow some switchbacks down the canyon and into the hoodoos.
Sunset Point
- 10m
- Admission ticket not included
Sunrise Point is the trailhead to the popular Queen’s Garden Loop, which is an easy-to-moderate, 1.8-mile hike that takes you down into the canyon and through towering Ponderosa Pines and Limber Pine trees that cling to the sides with exposed roots. When you’re on the trail you’ll be greeted by Queen Victoria herself – well, at least in hoodoo form – watching over her rocky garden.
Mossy Cave Trail
- 30m
- Admission ticket not included
The last official stop on the tour, this is one of the most peaceful hikes at Bryce Canyon, but it’s technically outside of the park gates. Mossy Cave Trail gives you the opportunity to walk on the canyon floor without the steep descent. This is a quick 1-mile, return walk that ends at Mossy Cave; a grotto that boasts a waterfall!
