The Bryce Canyon area offers visitors many ways to view its scenic treasures. Guided ATV tours provided by local outfitters offer adventurers an opportunity to view lesser-known parts of the Bryce Canyon region. Other Bryce Canyon area outfitters conduct guided horseback rides through Dixie National Forest land surrounding Bryce Canyon National Park, including scenic Red Canyon. Another way of viewing the region’s less-traveled scenery is on local mountain bike trails, including Casto Canyon, Thunder Mountain, and around Tropic Reservoir. If you forgot your bike, mountain bike rentals are available at Ruby’s Inn. For a bird’s eye view of Bryce Canyon’s hoodoos, go for a scenic flight on Bryce Canyon Airlines. If you would like to hear interesting narration and enjoy stress-free transportation on your trip through Bryce Canyon, book a bus tour through Bryce Canyon Area Tours and Adventures. If you want to explore the area the simplest way, take a hike on Bryce Canyon National Park’s trails, including the Queen’s Garden Trail, Navajo Trail, Peek-a-boo Loop and Fairyland Loop. In the winter, outdoor enthusiasts will find cross-country skiing and snowshoeing excursions on Bryce Canyon’s trails a rewarding experience.
This small refuge provides visitors the opportunity to view Rocky Mountain bull elk up close onboard a wagon, or from the comfort of their own vehicles. The preserve is also home to European Fallow Deer and American buffalo. It allows visitors the chance to feed the deer. Tickets for the preserve are available at the Paunsaugunt Wildlife Museum.
