Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

- Amber6 contributionsThis is one of my favorite National Parks! Easy drive and a lot to see and do!
If you visit in the winter, wearing spikes on your shoes would be helpful!Written 16 March 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

View from the ridge line is stunning but to see the hoodoo's from below as well as the cracks, crevasses, and washes was amazing. If you are only coming to Bryce for one day do this hike and you will see the best it has to offer.Written 25 September 2023This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- LolaSpring Grove, PA3 contributionsDon’t miss this view of backlit hoodoos at near sunset, they look like sculpted candles. This view is easily accessible along the ADA paved trail. Stellar jays, chipmunks and rock squirrels are often seen in the area.Written 31 October 2023This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- BaldnRedFayetteville, NC228 contributionsThis trail was recommended to us and it did not disappoint. The Queens Garden trail takes you down into the canyon and between all of the formations. We followed it around and came up through the Wall Street section and it was well worth the effort. The one thing we learned was that Bryce is 9000ft above sea level so catching your breath was a real thing. We just used an easy pace and took several breaks on the climb out of the canyon. DO IT you will not regret it!Written 8 November 2023This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC. Tripadvisor performs checks on reviews.
- Polly D6 contributionsThis was the most wonderful hike. Incredible views and took about an hour/an hour 30 minutes. It enables you to see hoodoos, but also travel downwards to see the rocks overhead.
It is quite steep walking back up and can be hot, so take it relatively slowly and take water.
I’d recommend going left first, and coming up so Wall Street is at the end. It’s a gorgeous sight to end on but also the route up is slightly less steep than the other way.Written 14 August 2023This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

The company is so well organized and efficient at matching up horses and riders. The group of 22 was broken up into small groups of 7 or 8 with a guide. We had Quincy as our guide, who was really outstanding. He stopped at various points to tell us about Bryce and the viewpoints that we were seeing, answering any questions, and was able to elaborate due to his extensive knowledge. He had a fantastic personality and told a lot of jokes that added to the experience. It was scary going around the steep hairpin turns, but he assured us that we were safe and I had to trust in my horse! At the bottom of the canyon, there was a bathroom break with water for the riders and the horses, before remounting our horse for the ride back up. Being able to see the amazing Bryce Canyon from rim to bottom was an unforgettable experience!Written 1 October 2023This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- amybdashLansing, MI3 contributionsA delightful hike with some challenging elevation gains and drops, and views all the way through. Very little traffic (which was awesome)! It was COLD at the start (7 degrees), the sharp blue sky, crisp air and bright snow dusting against the oranges of the hoodoos was mwah!Written 12 December 2023This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- CanuckAlbertaAlberta653 contributionsWhen hiking the Rim trail especially between Sunrise Point and Sunset Point the formations you are looking at are sometimes referred to as the the Bryce Amphitheater and they are stunning and not to be missed.Written 25 September 2023This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- jyc823nj160 contributionsWall Street part of the Navajo Loop trail was so much fun and it's a must....my favorite trail of all times! Don't miss it if you are visiting Bryce Canyon! It looks harder than it really is, if you are in decent shape you should have no problem complete this awesome trail.Written 24 July 2023This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- Jyana SChatsworth, GA3 contributionsOne of the most amazine places I have ever been. Absolutely beautiful. All of the Hoo Doos don't look real.Written 12 July 2023This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC. Tripadvisor performs checks on reviews.
- Biblib3Greenfield, MA402 contributionsThis hike is short. Not too much hilly terrain. Waterfall and cave at the end. To see the cave, it is an uphill climb. It is a different perspective to see the hoodoos from the bottom instead of looking down on them.Written 2 October 2022This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- TravelerCentralFLAClermont, FL1,377 contributionsWe visited Bryce Canyon National Park on our recent visit to Tropic, UT. Our group did several hikes. Two of the hikes included the Navajo Loop. We hiked down the Wall Street side of Navajo Loop and up the side the goes right by Thor's Hammer. On the side of the trail that has the best view of Thor's Hammer you can clearly see The Three Wisemen. The hoodoos in that part of the Bryce Amphitheater are really unique and beautiful. You can see the Three Wisemen from the rim of the Amphitheater or from the Navajo Loop. I recommend the hike on Navajo Loop, but if you don't feel up to the hike you can see them from the rim. I highly recommend seeing this part of Bryce Canyon National Park.Written 26 June 2023This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- TravelerCentralFLAClermont, FL1,377 contributionsQueen Victoria is one of the hoodoos along the Queen's Garden Trail. Queen's Garden is called that because of Queen Victoria for whom this hoodoo was named. The hoodoo somewhat resembles the shape of the famous English Queen from the 19th Century.
This hoodoo is unique and my son and I enjoyed seeing it on the Queen's Garden Trail.Written 28 May 2022This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC. Tripadvisor performs checks on reviews.
