Hike the Navajo Loop to Queen’s Garden

HikingModerateSpringSummerYear-round

Descend into the Bryce Canyon amphitheater through Wall Street’s towering slot-like switchbacks to stand amongst the world's highest concentration of hoodoos.

Itinerary tips

  • 1Start at Sunset Point and hike clockwise through Wall Street to experience the dramatic descent before ascending the more gradual Queen’s Garden trail.
  • 2Allocate at least two to three hours to account for the steep elevation change and frequent stops for photography among the hoodoos.
  • 3Carry a minimum of two liters of water per person as the high altitude and dry desert air accelerate dehydration.
  • 4Utilize the free Bryce Canyon Shuttle to access the trailhead at Sunset Point during peak months to avoid limited parking availability.
  • 5Wear sturdy hiking boots with excellent traction to navigate the loose limestone gravel on the switchbacks safely.
  • 6Check the park website for trail closures before arriving, as the Wall Street section often closes during winter and early spring due to rockfall risk.
