    Tips

    Hiking

    The Sleeping Rainbow Trail is a more challenging hike option due to its steep terrain and summer heat. Despite the difficulty, the trail rewards those who persist with views of large fossilized tree trunks. The steep beginning gives way to a mostly level path at the top, unless you continue onto the Sleeping Rainbow loop, which descends and climbs back up. For a less demanding walk, try the nearby Petrified Wood Cove Trail.

    Hiking

    This back section in the Escalante Petrified Forest is for the better trained. Because the terrain is a bit steeper and of course the climatic conditions in the summer make walking difficult. Those who still follow this path will be rewarded with large fossilized tree trunks.
