Trail Facts
Overview
Weeping Rock is a delightful hike for adventurers of all ages! The trail can be a bit steep in some areas, but it is a short climb to an exciting overhang that “weeps” even in the dry Southern Utah summers! You don’t want to miss this hike, and your kids will be fascinated by this crying rock face, and hanging ferns that grow from the rock wall. Early, wet springs will afford you a chance at seeing the waterfall running to a nice clear pool below Weeping Rock. The trail is paved the entire way and is stroller accessible. Although short, this will be one of the more memorable trips for your family!
