    More about this place

    Fairyland Trail is a beautiful and strenuous hiking trail that offers stunning views of the park's unique hoodoo rock formations. The trail is a 7.4-mile round-trip hike that begins and ends at Fairyland Point, and features a 1,580-foot (480 m) descent and ascent. Along the way, you will pass through an enchanting landscape of towering hoodoos, natural arches, and hidden canyons.

    The Fairyland Trail offers a unique opportunity to see some of the lesser-visited areas of Bryce Canyon National Park. Along the way, hikers will pass by landmarks such as Tower Bridge, China Wall, and the Chinese Wall of China, which offer unique perspectives of the park's geological wonders. The trail is generally less crowded than some of the other popular hikes in the park, making it a great option for if you are looking for a more peaceful and remote experience.
