Tips

The Red Canyon Visitor Center, just off Highway 12 near Bryce Canyon, is surrounded by stunning red sandstone formations and lush green pines. Known as one of Utah’s most photographed spots, it offers maps, and trail info. Popular trails like Pink Ledges and Birdseye, plus biking routes like Thunder Mountain, are nearby.

It's a paradise for hikers, mountain bikers, and horseback riders, away from the tourist crowds of Bryce Canyon. There are numerous short, well-maintained trails (e.g., Pink Ledges Trail, Hoodoo Trail) as well as longer routes (e.g., Cassidy Trail, Golden Wall Trail). Numerous hiking trails start from the parking lot directly at the Visitor Center.
