You'll reach Bryce Canyon National Park by crossing striking landscapes, before falling under the spell of the thousands of extraordinary rock formations found here. Wind and water have shaped what are known as hoodoos — spire-like cliffs and pinnacles in shades of ochre and orange. After taking in the majestic natural amphitheater, be sure to descend into the canyon floor via the Navajo Loop to approach these stone giants up close.
At under 40 km long, Bryce Canyon is likely the smallest national park you'll visit on your journey, but it's unquestionably one of the most spectacular. The park takes its name from Ebenezer Bryce, a Mormon pioneer who settled in the canyon in 1875. He is said to have called it “a hell of a place to lose a cow.”
