The Milky Way floats above the eastern horizon in this view of Bryce Canyon from the Fairyland Loop Trail. Bryce is well known for having very dark skies, and with an elevation at its rim of around 8,500 ft (2600 m) the view of the night sky is "stellar".

Bryce offers a variety of hiking, horseback riding, and snow shoeing opportunities. The Navajo Loop trail is a popular trek. - Martin van Hemert
