Tips

The Cathedral Rock Trail is a very popular, moderate trail that winds up through ponderosa pines and aspen groves toward Cathedral Rock. You get phenomenal views of the impressive, sheer limestone Echo Cliffs almost the entire way up the trail. On the Cathedral Rock trail there are log benches every 16th of a mile along the way for you to stop, sip water, and admire the views. After the junction for the Little Falls the trail steepens, but you are rewarded with increasingly spectacular views as you reach the summit of Cathedral Rock.
