Did you know that Utah has its very own Wall Street? It’s not filled with investment bankers wearing expensive suits….this Wall Street is full of hikers and outdoor enthusiasts, and it’s a lot more beautiful than the one in Manhattan. Check out this fun hike that’s perfect for just about everyone!
The amphitheater of Bryce Canyon National Park is one of the most stunning sights on the planet, but most people view it from one of the overlooks along the main road. The Wall Street/Queens Garden Trail takes you right down in, amongst the hoodoos.

You’ll start your hike at the Queens Garden Trailhead, near Sunrise Point. The hike is considered moderate, with a 613-foot elevation change.

A series of switchbacks takes you down the side of the mountain into the amphitheater. It’s steep, but the train is well-groomed.
