The Navajo Loop trailhead is located at Sunset Point. The trail takes one rapidly down into the amphitheater, past Thor’s Hammer, via a series of switchbacks. The loop trail is an elongated oval with the northeast portion taking one by twin bridges, two small natural stone bridges close together, and the southwest portion of the loop takes one through Wall...

Amazingly beautiful. The turnout allows you to pull over to take photos of the gorgeous views. Hard to imagine what the first settlers to this area must have said to one another upon on discovering these sites!

Around every corner I would say the same thing will hiking, "Wow, tis is incredible. The trip to Angel's Landing in Zion tested my resolve in Zion and the Queen's Garden/Navajo Loop/Peek-a-Boo Loop is one of the most awe-inspiring three hour hikes I've ever done!

Easier going down then coming up, but worth it. Love the scenery. Forest inside the canyons are a cool effect.

All the trails we took were great, not too taxing, and gave us an appreciation for the beauty of the park from different angles and lighting

Loved this hike. I combined it with the Rim and the Queen trail, completing the loop with the Navajo trail. It was a moderate ascent and I saw some people struggling a bit. The scenery is incredible. You cannot comprehend the immensity of the rock structures without being down at the bottom looking up.

If you have the time, the short hike is easy enough for everyone to do. It drops down through the canyon awarding you with great views of all the formations.

We combined this hike with the Peek-a-boo trail. The views are spectacular. The trail was crowded for the first 15-20 minutes until we got past the tour bus crowds. The colors and the vistas are surreal. The Navajo Trail quickly takes you down below the rim of the canyon. The combined hike is rather strenuous, so we took our time.... More

We stood at Sunrise Point of Bryce Canyon and just had to go inside the amhitheater by taking the famous Navajo Trail and through the Queens Garden where you begin the ascent to Sunset Point. It took us three hours- we were so mesmorized by the hoodoos and colors of the canyon as the sun set we forgot about time.... More
