Have you ever been to Bryce Canyon National Park?  Do you know where all to go see?  I’ve been all over the park and I can tell you that there’s a lot to see.  So here are some of the highlights.  These are 10 sights you must see in Bryce Canyon National Park.

Mossy Cave

Mossy Cave is a must-see location in Bryce Canyon.  This overhang in the desert has a rather constant dripping supply of water into a permanently shady spot.  It has green moss all year long and features icicles during the winter months.

Fairyland

This newer portion of the park features many of the hoodoos not visible from the main amphitheater.  It’s a great place to start your Bryce Canyon tour with must-see locations.

Sunrise Point

This viewpoint marks the beginning of the main amphitheater for which the park is famous.  It features a view of the Boat Mesa and the Sinking Ship Mesa closer than the other viewpoints.

Sunset Point

This is a popular viewpoint in Bryce Canyon.  It also houses trailheads for some of the more popular trails.  It gives a wide splendid view of much of the amphitheater.

Inspiration Point

This wider and more expansive view of the main amphitheater has a surprisingly small viewpoint area.  It also offers a short but steep hike up the rim to the upper observation point.

Bryce Point

This viewpoint is, by far, the biggest and best view of the main amphitheater.  It offers about a 270° view of the hoodoos and surrounding landscape.

Far View Point

This amazing view is not a part of the main amphitheater.  However, it does offer an incredible view where, when conditions are right, you can see off into Escalante National Monument in the distance.

Natural Bridge

Utah national parks are famous for their arches and Bryce Canyon is no exception.  While the draw of the park is the hoodoos, there are a few arches you can find if you know where to go.  This arch is the easiest to find and to see.

Rainbow Point

Rainbow Point is part of the second biggest amphitheater at the top of the park.  There you can see several layers of rock which make up the mountains.  Thus the name of the viewpoint.

Yovimpa Point

This viewpoint is the southern-most viewpoint of the park.  From this spot, you can look out and see into Arizona if the conditions are right.  You can also look down several colors and layers of sedimentary rock which proceeds down into the Grand Canyon 103 miles away.

Conclusion

In conclusion, there are several sights to see in Bryce Canyon National Park.  This list is far from all-inclusive.  However, it’s a great place to start if you’re making your first trip to this national park.  So, where will you go first when visiting Bryce Canyon?  Share your plans in the comments section below.
