Route Description for The Bryce Transverse Trail
The Bryce Transverse Trail is a gorgeous route for moderately experienced hikers in Bryce Canyon National Park. This trail follows a point-to-point route, so hikers should plan for a shuttle ahead of time. If you do not have access to two cars, you can return to the trailhead by catching a ride on the Bryce Canyon Park Shuttle, a free service provided by the NPS. The Bryce Transverse is a fantastic way to spend an afternoon exploring the otherworldly terrain of Bryce Canyon National Park!
