Cascade Canyon Trial | Cascade Canyon Trial | Nine miles of natural beauty and breathtaking views of the canyon, cascades, and Teewinot Mountain. It's very accessible, rated moderate, and therefore one of the Tetons' most popular and busy trails. Get started early to avoid the crowds around Inspiration Point and Hidden Falls. Wildflower species are abundant, and wildlife includes moose, mule deer, and pika.  | - wildflowers
- wildlifeDelta Lake Trail | Delta Lake Trail | In the shadow of Grand Teton, this stunning glacial lake is accessed by a 5-mile trail, with a climb of 2300m and a little scramble on the unmaintained section of path. It is a well-worn path as many people flock here, and with good reason. Snow typically makes access very challenging from around October. | - wildflowers
- wildlifeJenny Lake Loop  | Jenny Lake Loop  | This is one of the most accessible trails, with minimal elevation, as it works its way all around the lake to complete a satisfying loop. Beautiful and serene scenery despite the crowds, and either direction works well around the circuit. A ferry runs, which gives you the option of hiking roughly halfway around the lake. | - Hidden Falls
- Inspiration PointPhelps Lake Trail | Phelps Lake Trail | Phelps Lake is quieter than Jenny Lake, an accessible and easy-going option to get you away from the crowds. There's a sandy beach about halfway around, making an ideal spot to play in the water and stop for a picnic. The views are even more scenic if you make the lake loop in a counter-clockwise direction. You'll be treated to views of Death Canyon. Another nice feature is the campsite on the lakeside, to soak it up overnight. A roundtrip of 7.2miles starting from the Laurence S. Rockefeller Preserve visitors center. | - WildflowersTaggart Lake | Taggart Lake | This 3.8-mile circular route has beautiful lakeside views and easy paths all the way. It's an excellent trail to begin your exploration of the Tetons. It's best accessed from May to October, and beyond that, you should consider carrying snowshoes. It's a great trail to spot wildlife with regular sitings of moose and bears. | - wildlifePaintbrush Canyon Trail | Paintbrush Canyon Trail | This 21.9-mile trail takes you through Paintbrush Canyon, with its abundance of wildflowers, and up to a pass that will take your breath away. The climb up Paint Brush divide is challenging but well worth it. It's a great trail to camp out on from May to September to break up the hike, or you could do a shorter out and back route of 11.3 miles from Stringer Lake. | - gorgeous wildflowersDeath Canyon Trail | Death Canyon Trail | This beautiful valley sees fewer visitors and is a fantastic place to immerse yourself in nature, with abundant wildflowers, moose, bears, birds, and deer, amongst others. The complete trail is quite demanding, but there are good options to shorten it by turning back at Phelps Lake Overlook or at Phelps Lake, both of which make for delightful shorter hikes. The highlight is the breathless ascent up the gorge itself. | - wildflowers
- wildlifeHermitage Point Trail | Hermitage Point Trail | This trail is a full-day but easygoing lowland hike. It invites you to enjoy the glorious mountain views from gentle meadows and overgrown willows. The first section is popular with families, but you'll find the numbers drop off as you continue along the loop. Beyond Hermitage Point there are fine views of the Tetons and Jackson Lake. | - Colter Bay Village 
- Visitor CenterSignal Mountain | Signal Mountain | This trail takes you through peaceful forest and meadows, a beautiful and secluded route, leading gradually upwards to the summit with spectacular views. The last bit of the trail is on the road, and some people drive to reach the summit. It's an 8.2-mile trail rated moderate. | - forested route
- alpine tundra
- WildlifeTwo Ocean Lake Loop | Two Ocean Lake Loop | Around Two Ocean Lake, this trail offers a mellow 6-mile loop. It's a great place to look out for wildlife, particularly elk, bears, moose, as well as water birds, herons, and osprey. Also by the lake there are horseflies and mosquitoes so go prepared.  | - wildlifeGranite Canyon | Granite Canyon | Granite Canyon has various options to tailor longer or shorter hikes, but the full trail is 11.7 miles out and back starting gently upwards through boulder-strewn meadows and forests. At the end, you reach Marion Lake with beautiful views, well worth the 300ft strenuous climb.  | - Snake River
- Marion Lake
- Rendezvous MountainMarion Lake | Marion Lake | Marion Lake can be reached via the Granite Canyon Trail or the Jackson Hole Aerial Tram in Teton Village. The tram takes you 4139 feet up to the summit of Rendezvous Mountain. From there, it's a 13-mile out-and-back hike, though you can do it as a loop by returning from the lake via the Granite Canyon Trail. There are stunning views of the Tetons and the Gros Ventre Mountains from the lake. | - wildflowersAlaska Basin | Alaska Basin | This 15-mile circular trail can be challenging but offers some of the best alpine landscapes in the Teton range. From the Treasure Mountain Scout Camp it's a 9-mile hike to reach the Alaska Basin, including plenty of ups and downs, noteably the Devils Stairs.  | - wildlifeTeton Crest Loop | Teton Crest Loop | Up to 45 miles depending on your route, the Teton Crest Loop is a glorious trail through passes and alpine lakes, including Death Canyon Shelf, and the Lower and Upper Paintbrush Canyons. It rarely drops below 8000ft altitude and offers fantastic opportunities to see wildlife, including mountain lions, wolves, black and grizzly bears. Design your itinerary for 3-5 days to take it all in.  | - wildlife

Just a few minutes from Civic Center, the speakeasy bar is most famous for their craft rum and rum cocktails. If you're not too into that though, feel free to strike up a conversation with the bartender and they'll be more than happy to whip you up a personal drink based on your preferences. Considered one of the best in the city, the bar definitely lives up to the hype that gives it long lines night by night. Seating is limited so be sure to get there a few minutes before the bar opens at 5 pm to get ahead of the lines. | Have a blast at Kozy Kar | Kozy Kar | Playful, crazy, and a little bit racy, Kozy Kar has made headlines mostly for its humorous scheduling notices that some have taken too seriously.

You might find a line outside the bar and yet another wait for a booth, though, so plan ahead. | Get inspired at Pagan Idol | Pagan Idol | A more hip and fresh version of the Tonga Room, Pagan Idol spares no expense in delivering the tiki theme from the nautical seating area to the tribal hut bar.

Important tips for this itinerary | Pier day | You won't need a car for this trip, but it is **highly recommended** to sign-up for a month of [Bay Wheels](https://www.lyft.com/bikes/bay-wheels). Pay $13 (2021) for a month of riding to get unlimited 45-minute bike rentals for the month, then cancel the membership before you leave the city. It's cheaper than parking and will allow you to explore this entire itinerary.

Have a car? Even so, park the car somewhere and go with Bay Wheels. Parking is an exercise that will leave you frustrated in the city.

## How to start this itinerary

This itinerary can be started in a few ways:

- You can take Bart/Cal-Train and get a Bay Wheels bike to ride up the Embarcedaro
- You can take the ferry from Oakland and start at the Ferry Building
- You can park in North Beach and take a Bay Wheels bike to start the itinerary at Pier 39 | Take a walk or jog at Rincon Park | Rincon Park | Rincon Park sits along the Embarcadero right by the water and at times can be caught under the shade of the Bay Bridge. This tiny slice of green space is most famous for the large bow and arrow sculpture known as "Cupid's Span." Though perfect for seaside jogging, the park is best for tourists to capture a photo of the Bay Bridge in all its glory.

It's position at the start of the Embarcadero makes it the best starting point for this SF itinerary. Once you get here, grab a Bay Wheels bike to begin biking up the Embarcadero. | - Jogging
- Small walks Check out Ferry Building | Ferry Building | Further up the Embarcadero is the San Francisco Ferry Building. Built before the 1900s, the building features an elegant Beaux Arts style that withstood the test of time and two major earthquakes. Aside from being a hub for the Golden State Ferry, the building also houses offices, a food court, and on certain days of the week, a farmer’s market in the plaza in front of the building.

Aside from food and architecture, the building stands as a famous landmark in the area with a 75m clock tower that stares down Market Street. Be sure to be at the Embarcadero Plaza just across the street for the best angle to capture the whole building.

If you're hungry, check out Hog Island Oyster for their happy hours. It's one of the most frequented Oyster restaurant in San Francisco. | - Foods
- Farmers marketOptional - Explore the Exploratorium | Exploratorium | About 15 minutes on foot up the Embarcadero is the Exploratorium. Located in Piers 15 and 17, the building is now a modern science and technology museum famous for its participatory exhibits.

Self-described as scientific funhouse, the museum has been heralded by both experts and tourists alike as a unique introduction to the mechanisms behind the world around them. With topics ranging from electricity to the local wildlife of the Bay Area and even human behavior, the museum features nearly 600 exhibits, a peek into their workshop, a glass observatory, and several restaurants among others. Tickets are priced anywhere from USD 20 - 40 but are definitely a steal for the kind of fun you'll be having here.

- Technology museum
- Workshops exhibitsTake a picture with the sea lions at Pier 39 | Pier 39 | After crossing a public park from Pier 35 is Pier 39, the most famous of all the piers along the Embarcadero. The pier is a shopping center similar to that in Santa Monica. Thus, you can find lots of great gimmick restaurants and souvenir stores, as well as a build-a-bear among others. One other thing tourists flock to are the sea lions that now rest on the docks instead of their former home of Seal Rock. Come here for the fun and food and stay for the friendly sea lions, which can be viewed on the left-back side of the pier.

One of our favorite attractions here is the mirror maze, which is only $5 with Groupon (updated February 2021)! [Use our referral link to sign up and to help us out](https://www.groupon.com/visitor_referral/h/c75aede7-c75c-4101-a792-d3da476b45ca). | - Shooping center

- Souvenir stores |  |  | Visit the antique arcade | Musée Mécanique in San Francisco | Tucked away in Pier 45 just a short walk west on the Embarcadero from Pier 39 is the Musée Mécanique. This museum is one of many in the Fisherman's Wharf district and is famous for its exhibit of old machines. These machines include antique slot machines and old arcade games among others, most of which are available to interact with. | - Play the shocking game
- Challenge your friendsCheck out the Fisherman's Wharf | Fisherman's Wharf | Though technically spanning an area including Pier 39, the Fisherman's Wharf neighborhood is more famous for Pier 45. Similar to 39, the area around Pier 45 has wide collection of shops and restaurants. However, unlike the previous, there are more museums and activities including Madame Tussauds and the afforementioned  Musee Mecanique. Pier 45 also has the USS Pompanito and SS Jeremiah O'Brian, both of which are now museum ships.

For Lunch, be sure to try out one of the many seafood restaurants right in front of the iconic Fisherman's Wharf sign. | - Sea food restaurants
- Museum shipsVisit The Cannery | The Cannery | As the name suggests, the Cannery was once a functional canning factory that began operations in 1906. After having closed down during the Great Depression, the building was bought in the 60s to preserve its history and was subsequently turned into a mall. Now a famous hang out spot, be sure to try out some of the classic restaurants surrounded by old time charm in this urban shopping center. | - Shopping center 
- Classic restaurantsExplore San Francisco Maritime National Historical Park Visitor Center | San Francisco Maritime National Historical Park Visitor Center | Right next to the Cannery is an equally old building that was once a warehouse. Now, it's a museum that houses the San Francisco National Historical Park Visitor Center. Here you can find exhibits of the old ships that passed through the bay and the buildings and tools that helped support them. Since it's a national park, there is a park ranger present and is usually open to questions about the area. | - Old ships
- old buildingVisit Hyde Street Pier | Hyde Street Pier | Across the street from the visitor center is the Hyde Street Pier. similar to the piers that come before it, this one features whimsically designed shops and restaurants. Though noticeably smaller, the pier had the important task of serving as the terminal for ships that did what the bay bridges do now. Today, it's where several historic ships are permanently anchored such as the Balclutha, an 1800s square rigged ship, the Eureka, a 19th century paddle steamboat, and the Hercules, a 20th century steamboat. All of these are available for tours and is accessible from a separate visitor center on the pier. | - Designed shops and restaurantsEnjoy the view at Aquatic Park | Aquatic Park | Contrary to what some might think, the park where you can see the Ghirardelli sign from is not Ghirardelli Square but the Aquatic Park. part of a larger national park, the area is home to the Maritime Museum.

With In-and-out nearby, a popular afternoon activity is to buy some burgers to eat on the grass.

If you get here before sunset, walk over to the Aquatic Park Pier to catch the sun dipping below the Golden Gate Bridge. | - Maritime museum
- Open water swimmingExplore Ghirardelli Square | Ghirardelli Square | While it is named after the chocolate company, Ghirardelli Square is not where the company is based, at least not anymore. When the square was built in the late 1800s, the building did in fact have the headquarters of the Italian chocolate company. Thus, it took on an industrial European style and was renovated to be an example of a classic town square. Now, it's a mall and hotel which has several Ghirardelli stores and restaurants. While checking out the stores, make sure to try the Ghirardelli sundae.

Fort Mason hosts several events, shows and activities, such as rollerdisco, lit Food Truck nights and art shows. [Check the website](https://fortmason.org/) for events and happenings. 

If you started this itinerary in reverse, or you arrive at Fort Mason early, make sure to stop by The Interval, which is one of the most intriguing bars in the entire city. | - Military buildings

3 Day Itinerary in San Francisco

Start with some retro pregame | Jackalope | Jackalope is by and far the best way to start off a Polk Street barhop. Its location at the beginning of the street allows you to hit every single bar on your way up.

They have some retro games in the upstairs area in the back and Plinko for a creative pre-game. | - Play plinko for drinks
- Go upstairs and play video gamesWarm up your dance moves | Vertigo | Vertigo doesn't stand out as much compared to the other dance bars on the street, but it's free entry and has got plenty of space. Beware! It's cash only. | - Dance it up!Check out the seasonal bar | Deck the Halls | If you couldn't tell from the name "Deck the Halls", this is a seasonal bar. Even when out of season, they do pop-up bars that are worth checking out for selfies. | - Drink and take some pictures by the seasonal setsLounge before the you get crazy | Lush Lounge | The bar before the storm. You'll appreciate stopping by here before going to McTeague's or Mayes for the craziness. Load up on drinks here before you hit the dance bars. | - Chill loungeClubbing time |  | Vertigo is great for some small time dancing. If you really want to get down with a crowd, there's three options. Depending on what kind of night time party-goer you are, one of these clubs will be perfect for your barhopping itinerary. | Enter the Mayes | Mayes | Mayes is 1 of the 3 main dance bars on Polk. They don't always give out stamps, but it's because this bar gets packed. Despite how crowded it gets, it's hard to have a bad time here. Expect to pay a cover of $10 unless you got a stamp before 10pm. | - Dance it up in a crowdGet ratchet at McTeague's | McTeague’s Saloon & Mayes | Dance bar #2, McTeague's saloon is the poor man's Mayes (and Playland). Regardless, it's usually free entry if you get a stamp before 10pm. Break out your dance moves at the disco floor near the back, but watch out for the smell. | - Dance it up in a divey barMore Playtime at Polk | Playland | Dance bar #3, Playland bar features dancing on the 2nd floor of the building. There's a cover to get in, but beware the line. Even after paying, you can stlil be stuck in line till they let you upstairs. | - Go to the second floor and partyCheck in with Bobs | Bob's Donuts | Bob's donuts is the holy donut of donuts, especially after all the liquor you've been drinking you filthy animal. But it's not just good drunk food, it's good drunk food. The warm donuts here will fill you with life, and they come in impossible size too. | - Grab some late night donutsTime to get Kinky | Kozy Kar | Kozy kar, kozy kar. What a weird bar you are. We say that because they play porn. Also, their tables are pretty weird. It's a bucketlist bar item if you haven't been here before. | - Sip drinks and watch porn
- Grab a seat at one of the Kozy KarsSing your heart out | Encore | A public karaoke lounge located right next to a strip of bars - what could be more perfect? Get your mic checked here and sing a few drunken songs like the train wreck you are. | - Sign up to karaoke ($1 donation)
- Sing alongPlay some video games | Soda Popinski | Equipped with some N64 games in the back, Soda Popinski is a great place to stop by to play some games. They also have a "spin the wheel" drink you can get. It's not always worth it, but it is fun. | - Play some vintage N64 games (like smash)Notable mentions |  | These are bars that can't be reached in a linear fashion. Getting to these bars might mean doing a little bit of walking, or they may not fit the divey nature of this itinerary, but they're worth noting in case you want to add some variety to this itinerary. | End of the line | Harper and Rye | You can discover this bar at the east finish of Polk Street. It's an incredible spot to meet companions for drinks, as they have a couple of seats/bar stools and a pool table region as well. 

They incorporate a spectacular choice of beverages, offering 20 juices on tap, trips of 6 x 4oz glasses alongside some extraordinary mixed drinks. | Wreck it | Wreck room | This bar is located a few blocks away from Polk Street, but it's a very popular games bar especially on sports days. On the off chance that there's no serious activity on the TV, you have darts, shuffleboard, and pool available for your entertainment. To the extent food goes, there isn't any but they allow outside food. Swing by the Trader Joe's in transit and enjoy the games at the Wreck Room. | Have a cider | Upcider | It's an obscurely lit bar/easygoing bar with an enormous choice of craftsman juices and some decent 'bar food' alternatives, for example, sliders, level breads and sides. It's a good stop if you're looking to get away from the divey Polk Street scene.

The staff are extraordinary and the cider selection is far reaching. Bread pudding with whiskey cream is a popular option on the chance that you go here. | 

A complete guide to Polk Street barhopping

Visit Jenny's Canyon | Jenny's Canyon | This stop is right next to the entrance of Snow Canyon. Once you enter, you'll park on the right side of the road. From there, you can reach Jenny's Canyon with a short and easy 1-kilometer trail. After traversing a short well-marked path, you'll reach the slot canyon and will be quickly surrounded by tall red rock walls. There are some slopes and inclines, but the trail is mostly level, making it an easy hike for beginners. Beware though as the trail is closed in the spring (from March 31 to June 1). | - short walk
- climbingGo to Petrofied Sand  | Petrofied Sand ( Snow Canyon State Park Petrified Sand Dunes) | The Petrified Sand Dunes look exactly like what they’re called - sand dunes frozen in place. The mesmerizing field of red wavy rock formations look almost like pastry and are a sight to behold. 
 
- ![Standing on top of the sand dune](https://cdn.daysetter.com/posts/united-states/nevada/st-george//visiting-snow-canyon-from-st-george/petrified-sand-dunes-02.jpg)
- ![Sitting on top of the sand dunes](https://cdn.daysetter.com/posts/united-states/nevada/st-george//visiting-snow-canyon-from-st-george/petrified-sand-dunes-03.jpg)
 
 You can reach them with the Petrified Dunes trail which, unlike the lava tubes, is much longer at 2 kilometers. This, however, takes you through the entirety of the dunes, so don't feel too pressured to go the whole trail if you're not up for it. There's parking and a restroom close to the trail head as well.
 
 There are 2 noticeable spots from which to get an amazing vantage point from, which is either the left or the right tallest petrified Sand Dune. The left dune will provide you a panoramic view of the road while the right view will provide you with a panoramic view of a trail next to the mountain. Both will provide beautiful views of the surrounding mountain. | - Play with sandExplore Lava Tubes | Lava Tubes (Snow Canyon - Lava Tubes) | After checking out the petrified sand dunes, the next stop is hiking over to the Lava Tubes. The lava tubes are a collection of 3 rock formations made from leftover lava freezing over leaving behind deep caverns. It's accessible by the lava flow trail which is one of the easiest in the park. You can even enter the caves as long as you bring a flashlight, though this may not be as easy as the trail itself. | - Exploring lava tubesCheck out (non-petrified) Sand Dunes | Sand Dunes | Snow Canyon also has regular sand dunes with a rather short trail at less than a kilometer long. The entire area is a patch of desert sand close to the side of the road surrounded by red rock formations giving off a wild west feel. While it doesn't give you the same top-level scenery since the elevation is much lower, it is nevertheless very fun to stop by and to play around in the sand. | - Play with sandExplore Pioneer Park | Pioneer Park | Pioneer park is a collection of red rock formations atop the red cliffs right by St George. the landmark is considered the pride of the city and is famous for trails that are easy to traverse and breathtaking views of the city. The Red Cliffs Parkway is directly connected end to end with the Snow Canyon Parkway, so it shouldn't be hard to miss. | - hike
- exploring pioneer parkCheck out Little Narrows  | Little Narrows ( St George Narrows) | The Little Narrows are quite literally a set of narrow slot canyons some of which can barely fit a person. It's free, barely 200 yards long, and right by the parking lot, making it an easy excursion for the unexperienced hiker. It only fits 1 person at a time though, so once you get in, the only way out is the other side, which is a bit of a walk back to the parking lot.

The pictures make this look less exciting than it is. The little narrows is a total "must stop" spot on your itinerary.

![Looking from inside the little narrows](https://cdn.daysetter.com/posts/united-states/nevada/st-george//visiting-snow-canyon-from-st-george/little-narrows-02.jpg) | - hike
- exploring narrow rocksGo to Dixie Sugarloaf | Dixie Sugarloaf | The Dixie Sugarloaf is a red rock formation overlooking the city. It gets its name from dark colored hard sugar bricks also called sugarloaf. Besides being an iconic landmark, there's a short trail that leads up to the top and provides a stunning vantage point of southern Utah, perfect to end a mesa adventure. | - hike

Visiting Snow Canyon from St George

See the natural beauty of Chessman Ridge Overlook | Chessman Ridge Overlook | Located along the Cedar Breaks, the Chessman Ridge Overlook is less of a trail and more of an actual scenic spot along the side of the highway. Do note that this is the same highway that's closed during winter, but it's still accessible with a hike, so plan accordingly. | - Enjoying the view
- Picturesque location
- HikingEnjoy your sweat moments at Sunset View Overlook | Sunset View Overlook | Another scenic spot along the highway in the Cedar Breaks, the Sunset Overlook is exactly what it sounds like. With sweeping views of the valley beneath, the spot is great with or without a sunset. It's a rather popular site in the park though, so expect some crowds especially during the sunset. | - Enjoying the view
- Picturesque location
See all the things in a single hike | Bartizan Arch Trail | This hike skirts the side of the Cedar Canyon and takes you on a nearly 4-mile journey through arches, overlooks and beautiful views. You end up at the Bartizan Arch, which is a landmark in the area and overlooks the sprawling cedar forest below. Do be warned though as it's a much more challenging hike than the Zion Overlook and though the recommended time is 2 hours, it may take longer for unexperienced hikers.

This trail will include several viewpoints along the way, including Spectre Point - be sure not to miss the signage! | - Exploring the view
- Picturesque location
- HikingTake the wonderful trail of Point Supreme Viewpoint   | Point Supreme Viewpoint | On your way back from the Bartizan Arch Trail hike, head over to the Cedar Breaks National Monument Visitor Center. From there, you'll see an observation deck nearby - this is the Point Supreme Viewpoint. There's a short walk from the parking lot but is well worth the breathtaking scenes you'll witness. | - Enjoying the view
- Picturesque location
- Hiking

A day at Cedar Breaks

Exploring Caliente | Caliente | The town of Caliente, NV sits just outside the Cathedral Gorges National Park. At its heart is the Railroad Depot and Boxcar Museum. Once a working train station, the majestic Mission Revival landmark now houses a library, some offices, a museum, and some unique photo ops. After a long drive from Las Vegas, it's well worth checking out, especially since it's along the way to the park. It's the perfect opportunity for you to discover some great American history while you stretch your legs and look for a bathroom. | Explore Kershaw-Ryan State Park | Kershaw-Ryan State Park | A top-rated attraction in Caliente, be sure to drop by the Kershaw-Ryan State Park. Though a bit out of the way, should you come here, try out some of the hike and bike trails that wind around the mesa backdrop. If you plan on going to Side Track, maybe order some take out and enjoy your food in the picnic area. A word of warning as this is mainly a campsite and some of the paths are rather steep, so best be careful if you're not a seasoned hiker. Best times to go are between February and April when the weather is cool and breeze plenty. | - HikingGo to Cathedral Gorge | Cathedral Gorge | A star of Lincoln County, Cathedral Gorge is not your regular slot canyon. Unlike those in Moab for instance, Cathedral Gorge features lighter colored rock formations made of ancient mud. It's best to go at it from one of two ways. First, you can park by Miller point and hike down into the gorge, or park at the campground right at the heart of the gorge. There are many hiking trails with the Juniper Loop perfect for causal hikers looking to see as much of the park as possible. | - Enjoying the viewCheck out the Moon Caves | Moon Caves | The Moon Caves are a maze of limestone canyons with walls several feet high. the faint mud color and desert sand give it an otherworldly effect giving it its name. Nearly flat all throughout, there are several entrances to choose from, with each entrance branching into its own tight cave.
 
- ![Inside the moon cave maze](https://cdn.daysetter.com/posts/united-states/nevada/caliente/a-day-at-cathedral-gorge/moon-caves-01.jpg)
- ![Another view from the bottom to the top](https://cdn.daysetter.com/posts/united-states/nevada/caliente/a-day-at-cathedral-gorge/moon-caves-04.jpg)

 It's possible to climb on top of the Moon Caves, but we strongly discourage it! Not only is it very dangerous (the falls are steep, and the ground is slippery), but it also erodes the cave like structures. | - Enjoying the viewEnjoy the view at Miller's Point | Miller's Point | Miller's Point is the highest point in Cathedral Gorge State Park and has one of the best views in the whole park. Easily accessible by road, the observation deck has some restrooms, parking space, and a small gazebo for viewing the canyons in the shade.

- ![Millers point](https://cdn.daysetter.com/posts/united-states/nevada/caliente/a-day-at-cathedral-gorge/millers-point-02.jpg)

- Picturesque locationHike Miller Point Trail | Miller's Point Trail | While at Miller's Point, why not try out the Miller Point Trail which connects to the Juniper Draw Mile Loop. At less than half a kilometer long, it's one of the more scenic routes with a challenge not too hard to take up. With stairs and well-marked paths, the trail is perfectly safe even if you're not a seasoned hiker. | - Enjoying the view

A day at Cathedral Gorge

Optional stop 1 | Beehives | Situated at the west entrance of the park, the Beehives is a great first stop to stretch your legs and do a little climbing on the boulders. It's fun to climb to the top, but be careful as the climb has a steep slant near the top. | - Sandstone formations


- Geologic cross beddingOptional stop 2 | Atlatl Rock | Another optional stop is the Atlal Rock. It doesn't take any hiking to see and will provide you a glimpse into history via the many petroglyphs preserved on the giant rockface.

Around this area are some interesting features, such as large boulders to hike up onto and crevices to explore.

![Crevice near Atlal Rock](https://cdn.daysetter.com/posts/united-states/nevada/las-vegas/west-entrance-itinerary-valley-of-fire/atlatl-rock-01.jpg) | Hike the White Domes Trail | The White Domes Trail | The first stop should be the White Domes Trail, which is 1.8 kilometer loop passing through a historic film set, a canyon and sandy descents.

We the trail on the left entrance facing the rocks, which you'll descend on a natural staircase. The view opens with large boulders to climb on along with the ruins of an old film set to read up on. The path starts off with a sandy natural staircase to descend.

![Entrance of the park](https://cdn.daysetter.com/posts/united-states/nevada/las-vegas/west-entrance-itinerary-valley-of-fire/white-domes-trail-05.jpg)

Following the path leads you to an open area surrounded by boulders. There's an old historic film set here as well, where you can read up on the history of the film set.

![Sitting on a boulder](https://cdn.daysetter.com/posts/united-states/nevada/las-vegas/west-entrance-itinerary-valley-of-fire/white-domes-trail-08.jpg)

Once you get to the river, make a right. You'll make it to short slot canyon, which will open up and lead you to the second half of the loop.

- ![Climbing in the canyon](https://cdn.daysetter.com/posts/united-states/nevada/las-vegas/west-entrance-itinerary-valley-of-fire/white-domes-trail-01.jpg)
- ![The view uphill](https://cdn.daysetter.com/posts/united-states/nevada/las-vegas/west-entrance-itinerary-valley-of-fire/white-domes-trail-04.jpg) | - Beautiful wild flowersCheck out the Fire Wave | Fire Wave | The second stop on this itinerary is the picturesque Fire Wave - another short hike with a great payoff.

The Fire Wave is a sandstone rock formation with naturally painted red stripes. As the name implies, it looks like a "wave of fire" going across the landscape.

We were lucky to arrive here a little before sunset, which let us get some pictures before the crowd came. Here's an instagram tip: The best spot to take a picture is towards the right using portriat orientation, which allows you to capture the undulating formation of sandstone. From there, have someone stand on top of the fire wave for a great unique photo.

If you're looking to kill time, you can extend your daytrip by opting to complete the Seven Wonder's loop, which is a relatively short hike. We were unfortunate to not have researched this place beforehand, so we had no clue that there was more to hike and see. Instead, we missed out and hiked back the way we came.  | - Best photographed in the late afternoon and early eveningGet this photo of Mouse Tank Road | Mouse's Tank Rd | This spot is a must-stop if you're into photography. On the way out, there will be space for 3 cars on the road here. If you park on the right, there are two small boulders that you can get on top of.

From here, you can snap an amazing picture of Mouse Tank Road leading away from the Valley of Fire. Needless to say, it is the most picturesque photo location in the entire park.

If you decide to park here, **please do not park right in front of the cliff**. We made this mistake ourselves and I'm pretty sure we ruined some photos for some of the people here (sorry if you're reading this!). If there isn't a spot to park, either come back or hike here from the Rainbow Vista parking lot. | - Paved scenic drive

- Drive through Valley of Fire State Park Optional stops |  | By the time you get that photo on Mouse's Tank Road, it _should_ be pretty close to sunset.

There aren't many places to catch a sunset in the park since the area is quite flat, but exploration is definitely encouraged to find the best photos.

If you want to hike a bit more, see below for some optional hikes, all of which are short. | Explore Mouse's Tank Hike | Mouse's Tank Hike | Short and easy walk through a canyon with a ton of prehistoric petroglyphs and stone faces! Well, there isn't any *real* stone faces, but while hiking, we were suprised by how many imaginary faces we'd seen in the rocks. The trail eventually leads to Mouse's Tank, named after an Paiute Indian called Mouse who hid out in this area.

Note that the petroglyphs in this area are **easily damaged** and are impossible to restore. Please resist the temptation to touch the petroglyphs as that damages the ancient hiistory of the park. | - Prehistoric indian petroglyphsGo to Rainbow Vista | Rainbow Vista Hike | Rainbow Vista is a perfect name for the view one gets from the trailhead, though we don't have any pictures of it 😅.

This short hike will reward you with a view of the Fire Canyon, which is a collection of a valley of red colored rocks. It's short enough to do without getting too tired, and is a good place to stop by if you're waiting for the sun to set.

If you're bringing a dog, just be aware that the rocks are pretty hard on this trail and there are a few jumps. Our doggo broke his nail when trying to keep up with us. | - Surrounding rock cover the entire color spectrumCheck out the Firecave | Firecave | The Fire Cave can be reached by following the Seven Wonders loop connected to the Fire Trail.

Fire Cave is the first wonder. It is a superb sculpture shaped by erosion in a pastel-coloured rock. It is not very large but very aesthetic. In the morning it will be in the shade, but the absence of direct sunshine will not take away the charm of the discovery. | - Superb sculpture shaped by erosion
