Hike the Navajo and Peekaboo Loop

Itinerary tips

• 1Arrive at the Sunset Point parking lot before 8:00 AM to secure a space and avoid the peak midday shuttle crowds.
• 2Carry at least two liters of water and salty snacks, as the steep ascent at the end of the loop is physically demanding in high altitudes.
• 3Wear sturdy hiking boots with aggressive tread to manage the loose gravel and steep switchbacks of the Wall Street section.
• 4Plan for three to four hours to complete the full 5.5-mile figure-eight loop at a steady pace with photo stops.
• 5Start by descending through Wall Street and returning via the Queen’s Garden connector for a slightly more gradual final climb.
• 6Check the park weather station for trail closures, as the Wall Street section often closes during spring snowmelt due to rockfall risk.
