    The Panorama Point Trail is a very short hike to an incredible viewpoint. This trail is flat and family-friendly. From the viewpoint, you will be able to look out over the incredible sandstone cliffs of Capitol Reef National Park. For an especially spectacular experience, try this hike at sunset to see the desert lit up in shades of pink and gold.
