Agua Canyon is home to two of the most long-standing hoodoos at Bryce: The Backpacker (pictured here) and the Rabbit. Stop by Agua Canyon and see if you can spot them!

The Natural Bridge is a unique geological feature that stands out among the hoodoos. This is a naturally formed 85 ft arch that took millions of years to form.

Farview Point is aptly named; on a clear day, you'll be able to see over 90 miles away to Arizona and the Henry Mountains!

Argh, matey! At Piracy Point, you'll be able to view the rock buttes that resemble pirate ships and the complex water systems of Sheep Creek below.

Mossy Cave Trail is about 10 minutes outside the park gates on Route 12, but it's definitely worth the trip. This trail will lead you across two footbridges and towards the base of the Mossy Cave; a naturally formed “grotto” with a waterfall! It's only about 1 mile long and is rated easy-to-moderate.

Well, there’s one more viewpoint along this road before we get back to the legendary Bryce Amphitheater. It’s called Swamp Canyon, but don’t let the name fool you. Swamp Canyon isn’t a swamp, but it is one of the few places at Bryce Canyon that has natural water sources. Underneath the canyon rim are two tiny creeks and a natural spring that keeps the vegetation down there happily hydrated.
