Description
This trail begins near the south parking areas on Dead Horse Point and traces the rim, dropping slightly in elevation, before turning back west and climbing towards state route 313. There are several rocky ledges, but otherwise this is a quite well-built trail. Be sure to stop at the Pyramid Canyon Overlook.
