Description

The Pink Ledges trail is a self-guided interpretive trail. It has numbered posts that are explained by a map obtained at the Visitor Center. The trail starts from the far side of the Visitor Center parking lot. It has moderately steep sections as it climbs past hoodoos, alcoves, and other formations along the cliffs. It returns back near the Visitor Center after only 0.4 miles.
