Weeping Rock Trail Head overview
Weeping Rock Trail Head
The trail is approximately 0.4 miles and takes about 30 minutes to complete. The trail is paved and is suitable for visitors of all ages. Along the trail, visitors will experience stunning views of the Zion Canyon and the surrounding rock formations. The Weeping Rock is a natural spring that drips down from the sandstone cliffs and creates a beautiful, misty waterfall. The water is believed to be from snowmelt and rain that seeps into the rock and then emerges at the Weeping Rock.
One of the unique things visitors can experience at the Weeping Rock is the sensation of standing under the waterfall. The rocks below the waterfall are smoothed and polished due to the constant flow of water over them. Visitors can stand under the waterfall and feel the cool mist on their skin.
The Weeping Rock Trail Head is a must-visit for anyone exploring Zion National Park. The trail is suitable for families with young children and offers a unique opportunity to see a natural wonder up close. The Weeping Rock is also a popular spot for photography, especially in the early morning or late afternoon when the light is best.

Responsible visitation & Leave No Trace
- Know before you go
- Check the operator's site (BLM, NPS, state agency, or private owner) for access rules, permits, and seasonal closures before driving out.
- Stay on trail
- Many points of interest sit in fragile ecosystems. Stick to marked paths to protect vegetation and prevent erosion.
- Respect wildlife
- Observe from a distance, never feed wildlife, and give nesting birds and denning mammals plenty of space.
- Pack it in, pack it out
- Take all trash, food scraps, and gear back with you. Remote sites often have no trash service.
- Leave what you find
- Don't take rocks, plants, fossils, or artifacts. Federal law protects cultural and natural resources on public land.
