Some more natural attractions are to visit here around and so we are at the Bryce Canyon (Utah). This National Park and Preserve is composed of three different Parks – Zion Canyon, Dixie Forest und Bryce Canyon – and those offers an impressive landscape. We prefer to stay most of our time at Bryce Canyon.
The rocks in Bryce Canyon National Park are about 100 million years younger than in Zion National Park and this shows rocks which are again 100 million years younger than the Grand Canyon. Nevertheless, includes all three areas called The Grand Staircase. From the Grand Canyon to Bryce Canyon a study over nearly 200 million years of geological is possible.
For a short trip we go to the Zion Canyon and there we hit serpentine roads which we usually know from the Swiss alps.
For the Sunset we are at the Sunset Point at Bryce Canyon. It is easy to hike into the Canyon and so we take a short walk in to the Canyon.
This scenery is really unique and gorgeous. The stones, sands and the colors as also the vegetation up here over 2400 m over sea level are fantastic. As we mind the big trees in this part of the world starts to growth up here over 1900 m over sea level. We are permanently on this high plateau where the desert and prairie takes place as usual landscape and over 1900 m over sea level the trees are rising high, really special.
Next day after the sunrise we are on a beautiful hiking trail in the Bryce Canyon which we have started at the Sunrise Point 😉
Just let you charming of our pictures
