In just one hike, you can visit a handful of Grand Teton National Park’s top spots: Jenny Lake, Inspiration Point, Lake Solitude, Cascade Canyon, and Paintbrush Canyon. The Paintbrush Canyon – Cascade Canyon Loop is one of the best hikes to do in the national parks. And hiking back on the Primitive Trail is a great way to add a little adventure to your day.Ĭascade Canyon | Best Hikes in the National Parks The views from the sandstone fins are unbeatable. As you approach Double O Arch, the trail gets more difficult (and more fun) now that you have short sections of rock scrambling. Those feeling more adventurous can keep going. If you are visiting Arches as a family or in a group, some people may choose to explore the easier trails at the front of the hike. Once you get to the end of the main trail, you can hike back the way you came or try out your route finding skills on the Primitive Trail. From the main trail there are two spur trails that detour to more arches.
