Sunset Point can be found in Utah’s famous Bryce Canyon National Park, and with a name like Sunset Point, you can be guaranteed to see some world-class sunsets. Located high above the Bryce Canyon Amphitheater, Sunset Point looks over the Silent City, the maze of hoodoos and fins (types of spectacular rock formations) down below.

Many argue that Sunset Point boasts the brightest rock colors in Bryce Canyon National Park. These rock formations are made of limestone, and the bright reds, oranges, and yellows are caused by iron oxide minerals on the rock. From Sunset Point, you will get a breathtaking view of all these colors from above.
