Bryce Canyon is a series of large natural amphitheaters with thousands of multi-colored rock pinnacles called “hoodoos.” These formations shine brilliantly under sunny skies, but glow most exquisitely under the soft light of the sunrise or sunset. You’ll be astonished by the contrast of the pillars of red, white, and orange rock formations and vibrant blue sky. Our first "real" trip out was to Bryce Canyon National Park in July 2019. The weather was perfect and we stayed at Ruby's Inn RV Park & Campground (see review) which is located about one mile from the entrance to Bryce Canyon. We definitely enjoyed all that Bryce Canyon had to offer. The views are breathtaking and pictures will never really do it justice. The scenic drive inside Bryce Canyon offers easy access to a number of viewpoints (Sunrise, Sunset, Bryce Point, Inspiration, Farview and the natural bridge). And most within walking distance from the parking area. The amphitheater views from the viewpoints were amazing as well. We did a couple of hikes which also offer spectacular views. We started with a few easy hikes which were on the Rim Trail and Bristlecone loop. We also did a moderate hike of the Queen’s/Navajo Combination Loop Trail. We also attempted a more strenuous hike on the Peekaboo Loop but somehow ended up back on the Navajo Loop. Overall, Bryce is truly one of my favorite places. It is so serene and for some reason my heart is so peaceful when we visit. It is definitely a must see.
