2. The White Domes Trail

The White Domes Trail provides hikers with significant rewards for a trail that’s just a little over one mile. If you have little time to spend here, this is a great choice. The hike should take you roughly half an hour. 

Its slot canyon and other geological attractions have been a part of many Hollywood projects as well. Check out the 1960s western The Professionals prior to your visit and you will undoubtedly recognize several film locations along the trail. Have fun squirming through the slot canyon at the end too. You’ll find the trailhead just off the main road.

 

3. The Seven Wonders Loop

Don’t try to hike the unofficial Seven Wonders Loop trail an hour before sunset. While the trail is under 2.5 miles and should take under two hours to complete, you may very well take a wrong turn. The trail, which begins at the Fire Wave parking lot, is unmarked.  

Without exceptional navigational skills, you may need Google Maps. Nevertheless, this hike is highlighted by a number of the park’s best attractions including Crazy Hill, Fire Cave, Pastel Canyon, Thunderstorm Arch, and Fire Wave. Once you reach the latter, you simply follow the Fire Wave trail back to your vehicle in the parking lot.
