Queens Garden Trail

The Queen's Garden Trail at Bryce Canyon National Park is a breathtaking journey through a natural amphitheater of whimsical rock formations known as hoodoos. Starting from Sunrise Point, this 1.8-mile trail descends into the canyon, offering hikers a relatively gentle path compared to other trails in the park. Along the way, adventurers are treated to stunning views of the Queen's Castle and other majestic structures that have been sculpted by the forces of erosion over millions of years. The trail is accessible year-round, but the best time to visit is from April to October when the weather is milder. With an elevation gain of about 320 feet, it's considered a moderate hike, suitable for families and those with a reasonable level of fitness. The Queen's Garden Trail can also be combined with the Navajo Loop for a longer and more challenging hike, taking you past iconic features like Thor's Hammer and through the enchanting Wall Street section. Whether you're a seasoned hiker or just looking for a peaceful walk among some of the most unique landscapes on Earth, the Queen's Garden Trail is a must-see destination.
