This is so unique and unlike anywhere else in the world! Definitely plan a visit. I liked this one better than Zion National Park! The best! Totally awesome!!!

One of the national park I would like to visit again. Nice drive on the way. We can take horse ride also. Nice hoodos you can see from all the points. There is no need to check out all the points as hoodoos are visible from everywhere.

Unique sandstone hoodoos with several trails. Very scenic year-round, in-park lodging, two campgrounds on-site with local wildlife. Gets very busy, especially in the Summer. Within driving distance to Zion National park on the same day.

What a spectacular view from the rim of Bryce Canyon. The pillars of rock standing proud like candles in a church. A visit to the parks and Canyons of America are outstanding. A right not to be missed

Incredible! Such a unique place to see unlike any other national park. Must make as part of your trip if you visit Zion.

Bryce Canyon national Park is a Fortress of Orange limestone. Yes, it is truly, dramatically, bright orange with pinks and yellow ochers in mass, as far as the eye can see. When the sun is casting it's magical prisms of light on these already vibrant colors, the result is captivating!!!

One of the best views of Utah. We had been to Thor's hammer hiking trail. We started in the morning and returns in 2 hours. We missed peek-a-boo trail and queens. But there's always next time. Glad we did not miss this. If you are planning for Bryce then plan to do sunrise point/sunset point, queens, peek-a-boo and Thor's hammer. This would be best plan.

One of the must see national parks in Utah. Plan for stargazing on a full moon day here.

This place deserves more hype. A truly out of this world and one of a kind experience. It is especially magical in the winter with the contrast of red orange hoodoo with sparkling white snow and crisp blue sky.
