Artist's Point
Artist's Point Overlook
An open viewpoint on high ground along the eastern section of the Valley Drive loop, where you can take in the scattered buttes across the plain at a glance.
Artist's Point Overlook is on the one-way eastern section of the Valley Drive loop. Its elevated position gives an open view of more than a dozen buttes and mesas, near and far, and it is considered one of the most spectacular panoramic viewpoints on the loop. The edge of the overlook is a cliff with no railing, so take care. From here you can continue on to North Window Overlook.
