Paria View at Bryce Canyon National Park near Bryce Canyon City, Utah is an easy 0.4-mile out-and-back universally-accessible walk that features panoramic views of Bryce Canyon.

Hikers will begin at the main trailhead, which has three entrances along the parking lot, to make their way slowly downhill along the paved universally-accessible pathway to reach Paria View. From Paria View, hikers will get stunning panoramic views of Bryce Canyon with Yellow Creek just below your feet as it snakes its way through the canyonous terrain to reach the Paria River. This trail follows very steep sheer cliffs that plummet hundreds of feet into Bryce Canyon below, which adds to the dramatic views.

Before you leave...

MyHikes is an indie web platform aimed to make exploring public trails easier for everyone. The site has no investors and is owned and operated by one person, Dave Miller (Founder & Admin). As the Founder, main contributor, and doer-of-all-things for MyHikes, I share my trips with over-detailed write-ups for fun on a volunteer basis and I believe that public trail information should be available to everyone.

It takes a lot of time 🕦, money 💰, and effort (including espresso shots ☕) to run MyHikes, including hiking , mapping , writing , and publishing new trails with high-quality content... along with building new features, moderating, site maintainance, and app development for iOS and Android . I simply ask that if you find MyHikes' trail guides helpful to please consider becoming a Supporter to help keep the site, iOS, and Android apps available to everyone.

Supporters unlock website and in-app perks with a one-time payment of $25 (you renew) 😎👍. Or you can simply make a Donation of your choice without a MyHikes user account. Otherwise, telling your friends about MyHikes is the next-best thing - both quick and free 🎉

Thanks for visiting MyHikes and have a great hike!️
