Bryce Amphitheater Details
Roughly stretching from the vicinity of the Bryce Canyon Visitor Center to Bryce Point, the Bryce Amphitheater is the central feature of Bryce Canyon National Park. This spectacularly eroded section of the Paunsaugunt Plateau is home to the park's famous rows of "hoodoos" -- human-like rock spires -- and is the focal point for the park's most popular scenic overlooks, including Sunrise and Sunset points. Carved from the Pink Cliffs that give the features here their distinctive colors, the Bryce Amphitheater can be explored via a pair of the park's most popular hiking trails: the Queen's Garden Trail and the Navajo Loop Trail.
