The Two Bridges trail from Sunset Point is the best way to view and access the hammer up close! On Nov 27, 2021, it was approximately 47degF. Pretty good walking/hiking weather if you ask me! Our 10-min trek down the red dirt path was a piece of cake. Thor's Hammer is a spectacular site amongst all the other hoodoo's in the amphitheater. The trail continues on, but no need to go farther if you just want to see the hammer. Walking back up the trail? Now that's another story. Between the elevation and incline, it may take you more than 10-minutes to return to the plateau. Just take your time and soak in the incredible views of Bryce Canyon!

The hike is an easy 1.5 miles. The views at the end are worth it, and you can get close to the rock formations as you like (although don't topple the rocks!). It's suitable for families with small children. If you don't mind driving on an unpaved road (I did it in a 2WD sedan), check out House Rock Valley Road for unparalleled views of the landscape with swirling sandstone, painted hills, and other cool rock formations. Check out the Wire Pass Trail for amazing slot canyons, although check the weather. If there's any chance for rain, do not enter the slot canyons since the formations channel water and form deadly floods in the canyon.

You get a stunning view over the hoodoos and the canyon regardless of where you are, but I think this spot offers the most "expansive" vantage. It also has the most info signs along the short walk to the view point (it's like 100 feet long, pretty short). There is a small parking lot, i had no trouble finding a spot but there were only a few available. There is a lot of turnover here though since it isn't a hike, you just go and look/take pics and leave. Definitely recommend this spot if you only have a chance to go to one overlook!!

With 360 degree panoramic views of the natural hoodoos at 8,300 feet of elevation, Bryce Point provides some of the best views that you'll be able to see within the park. I'm talking jaw dropping ladies and gents! The natural hoodoo amphitheater literally surrounds this very viewpoint. Bryce Point is also the starting and ending point for several popular hiking trails including the Rim Trail. This is very popular landmark as you can imagine, and it can get pretty busy. Despite this, there's plenty of parking and lots of space for to take pictures or just to simply enjoy the view. There's a paved walkway that will lead you all the way down to the vista point area. It gets SUPER windy down there! In the summertime, the wind feels perfect. But, I can imagine that it would be freezing during the spring and winter. Hold on to your hats and phones because it can definitely get blustery. Everything about Bryce Point is amazing. If you're making a visit out to Bryce Canyon, make sure to make a stop at Bryce Point before you leave.

It's also one of the highest viewpoints within the park at over 8,800 feet of elevation. Getting there is easy and doesn't require any kind of additional hiking or trekking. You just have to make the drive there from the visitor's center. However, if you're already planning on taking a scenic drive through the park, then it should be easy to hit on your way to or from Rainbow Point since you'll already be passing it by. The views are truly beautiful and feature some very unique hoodoo formations. Parking is super easy and you can literally pull into a parking space right from the road. Would recommend this quick stop on your scenic drive through Bryce Canyon National Park.

Yep... they don't call it Rainbow Point for nothin'! It's also the highest point within the park with an elevation of over 9,000 feet. You can only imagine how gorgeous the landscape it. The views are truly breathtaking here. It's a bit of a drive from the entrance and visitor center and the last big viewpoint that you'll reach along the scenic drive throughout the park. It's almost like saving the best for last really. However, it might make more sense to drive all the way to this viewpoint first and then make your way back down to the entrance. This will allow you to enjoy this vista without most of the crowds since most people will make this viewpoint their last stop. There are a few connecting trails that lead and pass through Rainbow Point as well, but you don't have to hike here to experience the views. It's a simple walk up a paved path with plenty of areas to admire the scenic panorama. The parking lot is fairly large and it wasn't too crowded on an early summer evening. The colorful hoodoos set amongst the vibrant blue skies and mountainous backdrop are totally worth the stop here.
