EMERALD POOLS TRAIL

The trail gains elevation to offer a wonderful view of the entire Emerald Pools pantheon.

A narrow passage leads up to Middle Emerald Pools.

The light flow of "Middle Emerald Pools" during the summer months. Numerous warning signs warn visitors to stay away from the edge of the cliffs.

The small middle pools flow over the cliff's edge.

A closer view of the strong flow. (During the drier summer months, there is barely a drip.)

Starting at the Grotto, the Kayenta Trail is an alternative hike to Emerald Pools with several open views down Zion Canyon.
