Rainbow Point

Amazing views. Plenty of parking on October 1, 2025, day one of the US government shutdown. The park is open today. Big thanks to the staff and the State of Utah for keeping this gem available for us tourist that have come this far.

This is a definite must. We came here for a picnic. Terrific views while you eat and there are plenty of chipmunks ready to pounce if you drop some food or your sandwich crumbles. But the views are what to come for. If you have the time, I highly recommend the Bristlecone pine trail. Great views and a few of the ancient trees, which are just amazing to think that they have been here for hundreds if not a thousand plus years.

This is the highest point and end of the road in Bryce Canyon. It isn't too far from the main visitors center and definitely worth the trip. The short Bristlecone Loop was a great little hike to explore the area and get more than just a quick viewpoint from the area.

Rainbow Point is one of the highest places in Bryce Canyon. From here, you can see far across the park and beyond. The views are amazing, showing colorful cliffs and deep valleys. It’s a great stop to enjoy the fresh air and take cool pictures!

Beautiful viewpoint being one of the highest points in Bryce Canyon. I was there around sunset and captures some fire smoke on the horizon.

Beautiful area 😍😍 this is the area you start with if you want to begin your Bryce canyon adventure ❤️😎 , you drive all the way down to the end of the road which is here and then you look at all of the stops going back up because everything is on the right side of the road and that way you don't have to cross over traffic 😎👍

Rainbow Point is the highest viewpoint in Bryce Canyon, and the views are absolutely worth the drive to the end of the park road. From up here, you get a sweeping look at the entire canyon and even out toward the Grand Staircase. It’s peaceful, less crowded, and there’s a short Bristlecone Loop Trail nearby that’s a nice, easy walk through ancient pines. A great spot to take in the full scale of Bryce.

Must see point in Bryce Canyon National Park. Wide vista of spanning landscapes of Utah and Arizona from this point and the loop trail. Can see Navajo Mountain and No Man’s Mesa and the Kaibab plateau on a clear day. Just amazing.
