Under The Rim Trail is a 22.9-mile backcountry hiking trail that dates back to the 1930s, constructed by the Civilian Conservation Corps. In 1995, the trail was listed on the National Register of Historic Places. The trail provides access to the park’s Paunsaugunt Plateau region, beginning at Bryce Point and traveling east toward Rainbow Point. Though fewer of the park’s famous hoodoos are showcased along this trail than other park routes, it remains popular as a campsite location. Several trails connect within its larger system, including the Whiteman and Agua Canyon Connecting Trails. Hikers are asked to exercise caution with water supply and consumption, as water sources can be very hard to find and those that exist may be contaminated with E.coli. Map
