The Weeping Rock Trail at Zion National Park in Utah takes hikers on a short uphill walk to a natural hanging garden in Zion Canyon. The trailhead is located at the Weeping Rock shuttle stop along Zion Canyon Scenic Drive. It’s the shortest trail in the entire park.
Weeping Rock
A short but steep 0.4 mile round-trip trail ends at an alcove with a natural garden. Moss, flowers, and other plants cling to the rock. They’re fed by water seeping down the side of the mountain.
The path underneath the alcove is paved and there are interpretive panels along the way. At the end of the alcove, if you look down you’ll see a natural pool much like the ones on the Emerald Pools Trail.
Looking back towards Zion Canyon, there’s some spectacular scenery. If you stand under Weeping Rock and look up to the left, you can get a great perspective of the Great White Throne.
