Bryce Canyon National Park

We visted Bryce Canyon in May last year as part of our week long trip to the West Coast. It was a place that my husband had seen in a nature encyclopedia when he was young and had always wanted to visit. We had completed a three week trip to the west Coast 15 years ago and whilst we had managed to fit in places like the Grand Canyon and Yosemite we didn't manage to get to Bryce Canyon. So eventually last year we got there. There are plenty of car parks marked and maps available so it is easy to navigate around. The visitors centre at the entrance of the park does not have any catering facilities and even further into the park there are very limited ...  Read the complete review

In the summer of 2003 our family spent a few months in the western United States. Our trip started in Arizona and continued up into Canada. We had many wonderful experiences and saw some of the most breathtaking scenery I have ever encountered. Without a doubt the weirdest landscape I experienced was in Bryce canyon, national park in southwest Utah. I hope this review is interesting and if you are planning a trip to the area will help you to do so. How to get there **************** Bryce canyon is situated in southwest Utah in an area where public transport is virtually non-existent. The nearest airport is at Cedar City 87 miles away.

Bryce Canyon defies words, it is truly the most spectacular natural wonder I have ever seen. That includes the Grand Canyon, which although vast and spectacular is not nearly as beautiful and visually stunning as Bryce. You can either use your own car or use the shuttles which cover most of the major sites. There are lots of trails in the park ranging from moderate to very strenuous. Make sure you look at the information given to you on entering the park as these give you a good idea of which ones you want to tackle. Having already spent the previous few days walking round both the Grand Canyon and Zion Canyon, we wanted to take things a little easier here. We ...  Read the complete review

On a family holiday to South West USA earlier this year we had planned to see Las Vegas and Grand Canyon because those are the big attractions in Arizona/Nevada for anyone from UK. When I started doing some reseach on other places we could tour in the South West I came across Bryce Canyon. It certainly looked beautiful in the pictures so we penciled it in our itinery. The day we where due to push on to Bryce we heard that eighteen inches of snow had fallen there the night before. Thinking about how snow brings this country to a standstill we thought about giving Bryce a miss and heading south to the warmer weather in Arizona. On the advice of some local people ...  Read the complete review

I have travelled across a lot of America; the west coast, new england, midwest, florida and more besides, but I think Bryce Canyon park was one of the best places I visited. It is like the Grand Canyon made better, only smaller. These canyons, mainly Bryce Canyon, have distinctive spikes of dusty red rock rising up throughout the valleys. There are some totally corking trails to be walked that take you right were the action is. Down the canyons is an odd sensation. It is very, very quiet. Unlike a lot of places lie this, it is not baron and lifeless. There are trees jutting up all over the place, and deer are commonly sited galloping around like they ...  Read the complete review
