In Bryce Canyon National Park, there’s an excellent day-hiking trip everywhere you turn. The canyon is famous for its concentration of hoodoos, unique thin and chiseled rock spires, which are considered to be the highest anywhere on earth. And while the hoodoos may not be climbable, they do make hiking in Bryce Canyon a uniquely scenic and otherworldly experience. There’s a grand total of 37 different day hikes here, both easy strolls and steep, challenging treks, all of which run through one-of-a-kind geography and provide excellent views of the surrounding peaks and valleys. And if you’re lucky, you get to enjoy watching the sunrise along the Rim Trail, either at Sunrise or Sunset Point. This is an absolute bucket-list experience and a common way to start or end guided tours at Bryce Canyon National Park.

The best thing about hiking in Bryce Canyon is that there are incredible options for all skill levels. For beginner hikes, if you can walk for four to six hours with little elevation gain, you are good to go! Intermediate hikes will see a little more change in elevation and hikes will start to increase in length, hiking anywhere between four to eight miles. Advanced hikes are full-day treks with steep descents and challenging switchbacks. Keep in mind, the weather in summer can be very hot and you’ll also be packing a daypack filled with water and other things you’ll need throughout the day.
Here’s a list of the equipment you need to bring:
Dress comfortably and for the weather in clothes you can move in. We suggest bringing clothing appropriate for the season. Layers are best and don’t wear jeans.
