Chimney Rock Trail

Next comes Chimney Rock, a bright red pillar of rock that looks like a chimney. Here, you'll also find a great, 3-mile hiking trail to start your trip.

Goosenecks Overlook

Capitol Reef National Park Visitor Center

The visitor center is up next, a great place to stop if you need snacks, a restroom, or just a quick break to get your bearings.

Ripple Rock Nature Center

Continuing on, you'll also pass the Ripple Rock Nature Center, which offers some great educational opportunities for younger visitors.

Gifford Homestead

After that you'll come to the Gifford Homestead, a perfectly preserved slice of what life was like for the early Mormon pioneers who founded this tiny, remote town.

Fruita

Beyond that is the Fruita Barn, offering a similar glimpse back in time.

Torrey Petroglyphs

Next, you'll have the chance to see some ancient petroglyphs for yourself. Some of these ancient drawings are pretty clear, but others have meanings that are yet to be deciphered!

The Hickman Bridge Trail

The next trail, the Hickman Bridge Trail, leads to a truly astonishing part of the landscape--a natural bridge. Much like a natural stone archway, the bridge at the end of this trail seems to defy gravity itself!
