Fun Facts

Bryce Point is renowned for its panoramic view of the Bryce Canyon amphitheater, especially at sunrise when the hoodoos are illuminated in vibrant colors.

Bryce Point sits at an elevation of approximately 8,300 feet, providing a high vantage point over the canyon.

The point is named after Ebenezer Bryce, a Scottish immigrant and early settler in the area, who homesteaded in the Paria Valley in the 1870s.

From Bryce Point, visitors can see the famous hoodoos, which are tall, thin spires of rock formed by frost weathering and stream erosion.

Bryce Canyon National Park, where Bryce Point is located, was designated as a national park in 1928, preserving its unique geological features.

The best time for photography at Bryce Point is during sunrise when the light casts dramatic shadows and highlights the vibrant colors of the hoodoos.
