About This Trail

From the Park Avenue Viewpoint the trail descends steeply on stairs into a dramatic canyon and walks its floor beneath towering sandstone monoliths toward Courthouse Towers. Named formations along the way include the Three Gossips, Queen Nefertiti, the Tower of Babel, and the Organ. For a round-trip hike, NPS advises retracing the trail back up to the viewpoint rather than walking along the road.
