Heading down the first part is several zig zags

What a beautiful spot and neat place to explore and hike. I don't remember ever being at Bryce, and must put that on my list of places to visit when I get free.

Thanks for sharing those pics-----it looked as if your family really had a fun time!

Beautiful pictures of a stunning area. Is the hike into the canyon difficult? Would love to go there some day.

The hike was not that difficult. The elevation was more of an adjustment to us. We just took our time. The hike we did...was actually backwards of the way the recommend. I am not sure why they recommend the other route. Maybe it has more to do with the view you get going the other way.

There are several hikes in Bryce to take, some more difficult then others.
We did the Navajo loop/Queens Garden. The hardest part is hiking back up..once you hike down you need to know how far you can hike and take into the fact that you have to go up again. There were many families with kids doing the hikes. We just took our time and did not push it on the way up and out.
