The Panorama Trail loops through a highly scenic valley with sand pipes and colorful rocks. The trail then leaves the valley and climbs up the rocks, offering good views of the park’s formations. The most spectacular views are found at Panorama Point, which requires a short, steep climb up a few switchbacks.
If the three-mile loop leaves you thirsty for more hiking (and you’re carrying an adequate supply of water), several spur trails offer the opportunity for a longer loop. Be sure to pick up a map of the park’s hiking trails before you begin. (They’re available in several locations, including the Trailhead Station.)
