Navajo Loop & Queen's Garden Trail

Combining the Navajo Loop and the Queen's Garden trail is widely considered the absolute best, highly recognizable way to experience the surreal beauty of Bryce Canyon National Park. Unlike the Grand Canyon, Bryce is actually a series of giant natural amphitheaters filled with thousands of brilliant orange, pink, and white limestone spires called 'hoodoos.' Starting from Sunrise Point, hikers descend off the rim and weave directly through these towering, delicately balanced rock formations. After passing a rock formation that purportedly looks like Queen Victoria, the trail cuts across the canyon floor before aggressively zig-zagging back up to Sunset Point via the insanely tight switchbacks of the famously photographed 'Wall Street' slot canyon.

The Krimml Waterfalls are the tallest in Europe, dropping 380 meters in three massive tiers from the Krimmler Ache glacial river. The waterfall trail (Wasserfallweg) is a historical path that climbs alongside the falling water, offering multiple viewpoints (Kanzeln) where you can feel the spray and the thunderous power of the water. Beyond the top fall, the trail opens into the stunning Krimmler Achental, a classic U-shaped glacial valley that leads toward the high peaks of the Reichenspitz group.
