About Painted Wall View Trail
This short walk leads to an overlook of the Painted Wall, the tallest cliff in Colorado. The view is a good spot to watch the light move across the canyon walls at sunrise. Chasm View, Cedar Point and Exclamation Point are all a short stroll away, so there is plenty more of the rim to explore on foot.
