There were plenty of trails to choose from. We decided to hike the Red Reef trail. It was beautiful! We had dogs so I didn't go as far in as we could have because you had to climb over some slick sandstone. Some of my family members climbed over the rocks to see what was back there but I stayed back with the dogs but even with the dogs we were able to go pretty far in.
