I hiked the Fairyland Loop at Bryce Canyon National Park alone on July 30, 2023, and I absolutely loved it! It was a peaceful and relaxing hike with amazing scenic views. Some parts of the trail were challenging, but it was totally worth it. I highly recommend this hike to everyone!

Bryce Canyon is a very busy park, but if you can sneak in a hike here it won’t disappoint! There is a little bit of smoke in the air from the local fire but you can still do the hikes without issue. I’d recommend checking the air quality before your trip just to be safe.

Conditions: No bugs, Dry ground, Well maintained

Started at 9:30am and finished at 2:00pm with a stop to each lunch along the way. Had an easy time finding parking, which was a pleasant surprise because I'd heard a lot about how crowded Bryce Canyon NP can be. It was a beautiful hike. Went counter clockwise. Honestly would recommend starting even earlier in the day as the last hour felt a bit brutal in full afternoon sun, even with the cooler weather and lots of pleasant wind. Not much shade for the majority of the trail. Drink lots of water and bring a hat!

Today was beautiful but windy and there was smoke in the distance from a wildfire. This made for good pictures however. This hike is really nice and quite easy/moderate. Great way to get multiple views from the top of Bryce Canyon. Not very busy. Had the trail to ourself a lot. There’s a fair amount of shade.
