All of our life is spent working, pleasing others, and being stuck in 4 walls. It feels so nice to get out in a world that feels endless. No traps just pure freedom. 

I love that feeling, the one you get where you have no one to answer to... no one to worry about it's just you and nature all alone. It is beautiful. 


I never knew such beauty existed as a kid. Movies are where I would find my escape and it felt absolutely incredible to experience something this grand in real life. 
My eyes were so happy, my soul so free, this is a different kind of love and I want more. 



My favorite part about this trail is that if you stay on the pavement, anyone can come enjoy... that is typically hard to find and I love that it feels all inclusive. 

I shot all these images with my Canon 6D mark 2 and 35mm lux series lens. You can find my products here. :D 

I have only dram of hiking in UTAH. I started off in September with Zion National Park to only find myself back in this gorgeous state. The vibe, the rocks, the freedom I feel here is something I have never felt before. 

First things first, where to stay! We stayed at Bryce Pioneer Village and we loved it! It was just what we needed to sleep before hiking at Bryce! I was very happy with the price as well. $113 for the night for a deluxe double room with 2 full size beds! We had all the space we needed to prepare for our hike. We bought groceries before so we prepped out snacks and sandwiches here the night before and it was incredible! The beds were comfy, the restroom was spotless, and the staff was very kind. 

We woke up early to hit the trails BUT not without our coffee! We stopped by at the only coffee shop we found and I have to rate it at a 10/10. Bryce Coffee CO located at Bryce Inn. I am a crazy gal and I got an iced coffee despite the cold temps in this morning. I also got the cutest sticker from here and I added it to my hiking Utah jug! The staff was kind and the coffee was DELICIOUS!!! So happy we stopped here to enjoy ourselves during our hike. 

Alright, alright, alright... Bryce National Park was everything and more but nothing I expected. I read so much about this park, but not once did I find details on how insanely different this park is from all other parks. I am so happy I booked a flight with my girlfriends and drove 270 miles after our flight to start our 6 days in UTAH. 

We started our hike from the Sunrise Point trail and ended at sunset; however, we should have done it backwards... here is why... 

If you start at sunrise you get to hike down the Navajo loop trail instead of hike up which can definitely be hard for many. We were definitely tired but would have been more calm had we hiked down these switchbacks! Though both ways work, if you have children, breathing problems, knee problems, etc. definitely start at the switchbacks 1st! You will thank me later. 😉 

Another reason to hike the switchbacks at sunset trail first is that this area gets flooded with crowds right after sunrise! Hiking the trail can take a while with taking breaks and so many hikers trying to capture the beauty of the switchbacks. Clearly, we didn't do enough research but we were just going with the flow and that to me was so peaceful. 

I am absolutely obsessed with this park. It took us about 3 1/2 hours total, walking calmly, food breaks, and photos! Here are some of my favorite.... all taken with either my iPhone or my canon 6d mark 2 with my 35mm lux lens and edited with jazz exploring presets :D ENJOY!!!!
