Eberhart Point is the last improved overlook along the scenic drive. It was once known as Canyonland Park. It had a very popular chairlift that took you over the canyon.

At the top of the overlook is a restroom, picnic tables, grills and a bulletin board with useful information.

A concrete paved trail leads you to the overlook. The trail is easy with a slight slope.

Once you are at the bottom of the trail, you will see large concrete pillars. Many years ago, these pillars were used to hold the chairlift that once operated here. Turn right beside the pillars and follow the trail. The river is on your left, the cliffs on the right.

Be safe and be prepared before you hike this trail. Pack a lunch with plenty of water to drink if you plan to spend much time on the trail. Wear sturdy hiking shoes and take a first aid kit. Cell phones do not work in the canyon.

Day hike as long as you like, but remember you have to come out before dark. It is much harder hiking up than it is down.

If you want an easier hike, try the Beaver Pond Trail or the Canyon Mouth Picnic Area Trail.

Kayakers float the waters about 6 months a year. Kayaking is difficult and only recommended for the experienced. These rapids are a Class III-VI.

A dirt trail with several switchbacks leads you to the bottom of the canyon. The trail is three-quarters of a mile long. Hiking down is a moderate to hard hike. Hiking back up can be very strenuous.

You won't need to exercise the rest of the week after hiking this trail. I do not recommend this trail for small children or pets. It would be hard to hold onto a child or pet as you climb over the steep boulders.

The trail is unmarked, rugged and full of adventure. You will see rapids, climb over and under trees, over and under rocks, cross small streams and ledges. This is one way to see nature up close.
