To get to the start of this particular trail, one takes Route 9 into a tunnel carved right through the heart of Zion. The tunnel is old and narrow, and park rangers are on hand to supervise intervals of one-way traffic.
 

 
Very close to the exit of the tunnel is the car park (not to mention the ranger hut) for the start of the trail.
 

 
The car park is exceedingly scenic but not particularly large (although there are additional turnoffs for parking along the road), so as with most everything else in Zion, the earlier you do it, the better off you are.

From here, you have a choice of four directions:

• The overlook trail. Scenes either near or of the trail itself
  
• Cliff/rock textures via telephoto
  
• Zion Zeke: a western chipmunk
  
• The overlook itself. The point to reach
