Cedar Breaks National Monument protects a spectacular natural amphitheater that runs three miles long and ½ mile deep. It’s similar to the amphitheater at nearby Bryce Canyon National Park but more eroded.

It’s easy to visit the park in an hour or so if you don’t plan on hiking. Had it not been freezing cold, we would have probably done one of the hikes. In the end we only spent about an hour there and even saw some light snow flurries.
Overlooks
There are four main overlooks to visit for views of the amphitheater. The first is at Point Supreme, which is just past the visitor center.
The second overlook is at Sunset View.
A third overlook is located at Chessman Ridge.
The fourth and final overlook is at North View.
Camping
There’s one campground at Cedar Breaks, the Point Supreme Campground, and it costs US$30 a night (as of September 2025). It has 25 reservable sites and is open from mid-June to mid-September.
Activities
Other activities at the park besides hiking include ranger guided programs, stargazing, cross-country skiing, snowmobiling, and snowshoeing.
