The view of Echo Park and the surrounding canyon country is superb from the Harpers Corner Trail.

Length: 2 miles round trip. Not a loop.
Difficulty: Easy to moderate.
Trailhead location: At the end of the Harpers Corner Auto Tour road, 32 miles from the Canyon Area Visitor Center.
Brochure: Available at the trailhead and at the visitor centers.
Description: Fairly level with a few moderate ups and downs. Outstanding overlook into three river canyons at the end of the trail.
Special considerations: There are a few steep drop-offs, so keep close tabs on small children.
