1. Bryce Canyon National Park, Utah
This stunning walk is open April through October. The 11 kilometers combine the Queens Garden Trail, the Wall Street Trail, and the Peekaboo Loop. It is "all views, all the time" as you hike through the hoodoos and rock formations. Make sure your camera has lots of film/memory space! The walk is rated most difficult due to hills and altitude. It is at 8000 feet altitude, and weather can be extremely hot or extremely cold. Registration for this walk is 90 minutes away in Cedar City, Utah -- or you can register ahead of time with the club.
