Even if you don't stop to do any trails, the drive is gorgeous, with pull outs and shoulders to park at and gawk at the rock formations. (I'm not sure if you're supposed to be parking on the side of the road, but a lot of people were doing it!) There a bunch of informational signs outside the visitor center which provide information driving tours, hikes, ecology of the area, etc. From the parking lot are trail heads to hoodoo & birdseye trail, and also pink ledges trailhead. Worth a stop!

You get a stunning view over the hoodoos and the canyon regardless of where you are, but I think this spot offers the most "expansive" vantage. It also has the most info signs along the short walk to the view point (it's like 100 feet long, pretty short). There is a small parking lot, i had no trouble finding a spot but there were only a few available. There is a lot of turnover here though since it isn't a hike, you just go and look/take pics and leave. Definitely recommend this spot if you only have a chance to go to one overlook!!

With 360 degree panoramic views of the natural hoodoos at 8,300 feet of elevation, Bryce Point provides some of the best views that you'll be able to see within the park. I'm talking jaw dropping ladies and gents! The natural hoodoo amphitheater literally surrounds this very viewpoint. Bryce Point is also the starting and ending point for several popular hiking trails including the Rim Trail. This is very popular landmark as you can imagine, and it can get pretty busy. Despite this, there's plenty of parking and lots of space for to take pictures or just to simply enjoy the view. There's a paved walkway that will lead you all the way down to the vista point area. It gets SUPER windy down there! In the summertime, the wind feels perfect. But, I can imagine that it would be freezing during the spring and winter. Hold on to your hats and phones because it can definitely get blustery. Everything about Bryce Point is amazing. If you're making a visit out to Bryce Canyon, make sure to make a stop at Bryce Point before you leave.

It's at…read morethe southern end of the main park road, and you pass by multiple viewpoints and pullouts on the way there. I recommend driving first to Rainbow Point and if interested, hiking one of the hikes there (there are three: 1.0 mi Bristlecone Loop, 8.8 mi Riggs Spring Loop and 23 mi Under-the-Rim Trail), and then traveling back to the center of the park and looking at the views on the way down. It can get crowded at the parking lot, so try to beat the crowds by going early. If you time it to be early morning with sunrise, the colors pop out even more! You can easily see why it's called Rainbow Point. There are vault toilets and benches here, but no running water. Plan accordingly

It's also one of the highest viewpoints within the park at over 8,800 feet of elevation. Getting there is easy and doesn't require any kind of additional hiking or trekking. You just have to make the drive there from the visitor's center. However, if you're already planning on taking a scenic drive through the park, then it should be easy to hit on your way to or from Rainbow Point since you'll already be passing it by. The views are truly beautiful and feature some very unique hoodoo formations. Parking is super easy and you can literally pull into a parking space right from the road.

This is a very different view where you can see more of the forest side with the canyon. From my experience, you don't see much of this view when you do the trails.
