•The Weeping Rock Trail

•TRAILHEAD: A paved easy walk through mixed forest vegetation leads to a spring seep alcove, which nurtures lush vegetation. Continuous rain ''weeps'' from the ceiling of Weeping Rock above. Weeping Rock is found 4.4 miles up Zion Canyon Scenic Drive. The .2-mile trail takes about 25 minutes round trip, and is too steep for wheelchairs.

•This is a popular stop for almost everyone who visits I Zion Canyon. Interpretive signs explain the natural history of the area. Ferns and flowers thrive in the west alcove, and the light rain falling from Weeping Rock feels cool and refreshing on a hot day. Fall colors can be quite striking here.
