Navajo Loop – Bryce Canyon National Park

Navajo Loop might be the most popular trail within Bryce Canyon National Park. The 1.4 mile round trip trail is primary famous for a series of short switchback that descend through the narrow canyon. This is a highly photographed moment as the lightening provides a breathtaking scene. The full trail is somewhat moderate due to loose gravel and the steepish decline during these switchbacks. This decent is about 352 feet over a shortish distance. Starting from Sunset Point, the switchbacks are found after about 0.2 miles but are visible from the overlook. The trail continues after the decent to connect with Queens Garden, which is another famous trail. Below is a one way map to this connection point. The famous rock structure, Thor's Hammer, is also found along the path. Overall, Navajo Loop offers some incredible views while being easily accessed.
