We drove into the park nice and early and caught the shuttle bus to stop 7 for our hike to Observation Point.
It was quite cold but soon warmed up as we got walking. The walk is described as strenuous but we found it easy and didn't need to stop at all, we passed a few people on the way that seemed to be struggling. It's nice to know that all the walking has helped us get fit as one time I know I'd have really struggled too.

We particularly enjoyed the walk through the Echo Canyon, every corner we turned there was something else to marvel at.
Once we reached Observation Point we spent a while taking photos and enjoying the view before heading back down again.
We detoured to the Hidden Canyon on the way which was fantastic, I loved the perilous ledge path and once we'd explore the canyon we headed back down to the bus.
We were keen to visit Menu falls and do the virtual but the bus didn't stop there so we walked the half mile or so down the road until we reached the secret path. After this we walked down to the next stop and arrived just in time to get the shuttle bus back to the visitor centre.
Then off for a meal at our hotel and an early night ready for an early start tomorrow.
