Bryce Canyon national park has two campgrounds, North campground and Sunset campground…read more North campground is First come First served, whereas you can reserve your spot Sunset campground. After I saw both campgrounds, I recommend North campground. We reversed at Sunset but ended up getting a spot at North because it was close proximity to the rim, 1min! Also, close to the general store, which has firewoods, and camp gears and shower. Shower is $3 for 8mins. Last shower is at 4:30pm. Usually campgrounds shower is like warm but here shower gets hot! From Sunset, you have a little more walk and cross the road to go to the rim. And campgrounds were a little tighter than North. So we decided to dump $20 and get a site at North campground. Take the Loop D. It's the closest to the sunrise point. My kids and I went every morning to see the sunrise diuring our 3day-stay here. Just wake up and walk a min! In the Loop D, the best sites are 81 and 83, because their tent spots are very flat, and a little more secluded pluscloser to the rim. We stayed at 99. It's a little slant, but not a bad one. We liked it. Overall, Loop D has good camp sites. This is first come first served, so if you want a spot, it's better to come around or even before 11:30am whichj is checkout time. People even leave earlier like 9am so if you really want good spots, come early. We stayed on August 6, 7, 8, 9 (Thurs-Sun) and surprisingly, there was still empty spots during weekends. I'm glad that we came a little far To Bryce than Sequoia/Yosemite which is closer to our home in LA.

Staying in National Park campgrounds always seems like a hack to me - close to trails, affordable, and peaceful. Recommend Fairyland Loop for stunning views and fewer hikers, sunset point for sunrise (trust me) straight into the Queen's Garden to avoid crowds, and Bryce Point for sunset. Bathroom was clean, metal picnic tables. Quick drive to Sunrise/Sunset Points, I know the FCFS (first come first serve) tent only spots are closer, but I liked the certainty and peace of mind of a reserved spot.

If you are there in the summer, you cannot escape two major irritants: dust and park rangers. All the campsites (except one RV only loop) are next to the dirt road. Expect each passing car kick up bushels of dust at your face, food, tent, etc. This is a popular park, so you will eat a lot of dust. Try moving to the paved loop for RVs, and you will get an earful from the ranger in charge, captain "ihateyourgutswhoeveryouare". Never mind that the loop is full of empty sites. And yes, the local ranger in his truck will tailgate you until you leave the park, for no good reason. I don't get it--why are they so rude and unwelcoming?

We stopped at the Visitor Center to learn about the protected prairie dogs that reside in the park. This was a special focus that day. They had tables where you can learn about the varieties of prairie dogs in the US as well as why the ones in the park are endangered. We then got to use their provided binoculars to view some of the prairie dogs that live near the visitor center. The highlight of our day was taking a horseback ride. Definitely look into this as an added activity during your visit!

We first visited Capitol Reef, then Bryce, then Zion. I am glad we did it in that order. I will share my favorite hike, whether I thought the Queen's Garden Trail was worth It and a must-do. The park is 6,600 - 9,000 ft above sea level, so be prepared for less oxygen by walking on a inclined treadmill or hills and colder weather. We spent one day arriving around 8 am to get a parking space. I greatly enjoyed the Sunrise Point to Sunset Point Rim Trail (easy trail)- great for non-hikers, flat, paved and different view of the hoodoos. It is about 1 mile and wheel chair friendly. Midway is a sign to the Bryce lodge. That provides a nice stop for lunch. We had good hamburgers. We did the Queen's Garden trail which descends farther down into the hoodoos, you walk past a few down. It is more gradual than the Navajo Loop and easier of the two. It is 1.8 miles round trip and can take an hour each way depending on how well you do climbs coming up especially at 8,000 - 9,000 ft with less oxygen. I saw a man pushing a wheelchair with his mother down the Queen's Garden Trail. I wouldn't want to be in that chair without a seatbelt and just in case the man's hands slips. I hope he made his way up pushing that chair, since I imagine that was super hard up the steep inclines. I don't enjoy hiking or hills, so for me, it wasn't worth the effort walking back up Queen's Garden Trail and I had been training on a treadmill with a 13 degree incline for a few weeks; I turned around before I made it to the bottom. Looking down at Navajo Loop later, although steeper, I think it would have taken me more into the hoodoo level. My husband did the Figure 8 loop which is both trails. He said after Queen's Garden, there was a boring area then several up and down the hills below before you got to the Navajo Loop. The Wall St section was closed, so look for warnings before you go. A must do is to drive to Rainbow point at 9,115 ft and then stop on the way back. If you are pressed for time, the best stops were: - Natural Bridge - Biggest, tallest natural bridge I have ever seen. - Inspiration Point - 8,100 ft - the columns and rows of hoodoos was beautiful - Bryce Point (must do) - you can see both Sunset and Sunrise points and have the most panoramic view If you have time, stop in the Visitor Center with a small gift shop and watch the short film on how the hoodoos are formed. Bryce Canyon is a unique, bucket list kind of experience and whether you are a non-hiker who loves nature or enjoy challenges of hills and hiking, there is something for everyone.

This Fairyland Loop Trail is simply epic!!! Well, the sights and surroundings of Fairyland Trail…read morewithin Bryce Canyon NP are just fantastic! And if this Fairyland Loop Trail is the only hike you do at Bryce Canyon...it'll definitely be good enough. Alright, lol...I'll stop my gushing about being here in Fairyland...let me give you some details. The first time I visited Bryce Canyon NP a few years back...my most memorable moment came from a pair hiking trails that combined into one round trip loop. At the time, I highly considered it my favorite trail of all time!!! This path is known as...the Queen's Garden Navajo Loop Trail for 3 miles! The combination of the Queen's Garden and Navajo Loops are symbolic of the wondrous terrain that makes Bryce Canyon NP so famous. But...now here for my 2nd visit to Bryce...the Queen's Garden Navajo Loop was closed because of raining and flooding that had been going on this past summer of 2021. But not to fret, lol...here comes Fairyland! At the Visitors Center in the front of the park...I asked park rangers what other hikes they would recommend as a substitute and the consensus was this Fairyland Loop Trail. And the park rangers were precise. In fact, when I compare Queens Garden/Navajo Loop and this Fairyland Trail...they're almost copycats of each other exploring around the one of a kind hoodoos landscape. Fairyland Loop Trail is 8 miles round trip with an elevation gain of about 1500 feet. Though once you descend into the canyon...the trail has small little ups and downs until you finally decide to trek back up and out of the Amphitheater to the Overlook Rim area. It's only really at this point heading uphill where the pathway gets difficult. You don't have to hike all of the 8 miles of Fairyland Loop. I only went about halfway, but I promise you...along just 4 miles of the hike...I stopped a countless number of times for pictures! I was so in awe of the setting here in the heart of Bryce. Honestly, lol, I think I had chills the entire way. I was thinking, it's really hard for me to pinpoint and describe what I was looking at...so I'm going to paraphrase briefly from the website utah.com/hiking/bryce-canyon-national-park/fairyland-loop-trail..... "The Fairyland Loop Trail in Bryce Canyon National Park takes hikers from Fairyland Point on the rim, down into the amphitheaters and labyrinths, among the hoodoos and spires, and through deep, stone canyons of pink, white, and tan". Couldn't have said it better myself! Just some last points about this 5 star hike.... - When I first started hiking into the canyon, the trail was packed with visitors and it was difficult to grab pictures by myself. But...once I sauntered past the Tower Bridge section...the pathway cleared out and I had the sights mostly to myself. - ***Here's a real terrific hidden gem....During my explorations at Bryce I discovered a secondary/under the radar trailhead area for accessing this Fairyland Loop Trail. When you first drive into Bryce NP between the entrance sign and the fee station, there's a road you can turn onto which will lead you 1 mile towards Fairyland Canyon and Point. It is here where you can also pick up this Fairyland Trail (or even catch the Rim Overlook path if interested). But what's best about finding this 1 mile road right near the entrance...is that you can park right up at the trailhead! And there were plenty of available spaces when I arrived (btw, parking is extremely congested in the popular areas of Bryce). I'd definitely suggest keeping this in mind. You will not be disappointed the setting is perfect and it smacks you in the face real fast! You hardly have to hike to feel rewarded! - I found that checking out all the different overlooks and observation points throughout the park wasn't worthwhile. To understand Bryce...you have to do hiking!!! It's imperative!!! If you simply drive to every vista point, you're doing yourself a disservice and won't get the most out of your Bryce Canyon experience. Finally, I can't recommend this Fairyland Loop Trail enough! Actually, I'd insist on hiking both Queens Garden Navajo Loop and Fairyland. You'll be guaranteed to be immersed in colorful hoodoo mania! And I believe you'll fully grasp why I rank Bryce Canyon in my Top 5 of prettiest national parks in the United States.

Also, the way they advertise. It is totally misleading. You only got about a five minute view of the rim. The rest of the ride was through the Pines, and the only good views you got were of the guide, making a fool of himself. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED YOU GO SOMEWHERE ELSE IF YOU WANT A GOOD TRAIL RIDE.
