Before reaching the Hanging Gardens, there is a viewpoint with interesting rock formations in the distance. The garden sits in a sheltered cove in the rocky Glen Canyon. Such gardens form when water meets an impermeable rock layer and moves sideways until it seeps out of a canyon wall. An overhang slows evaporation, so plants can grow on the wall and the ground below. This 2.5-kilometer route crosses groomed paths, sand, and slickrock to reach the spring-fed garden of maidenhair ferns and orchids. The climb is minimal, about 18 meters, and there are views of Lake Powell and Glen Canyon Dam.
