This is one of the last popular hikes in the main canyon that I hadn't yet done.  Hidden Canyon has a rather steep set of switchbacks and trails but it's quite smooth most of the way.  It can be rather strenuous so on one of the many stops you'll need, please be certain to enjoy the fantastic overview you'll have.

 

 


From one of my favorite hiking bloggers ....

The trail to Hidden Canyon starts at the Weeping Rock Trailhead, the 7th stop on the Zion Canyon Shuttle, the same trailhead as for the Observation Point Trail and the East Rim Trail up to Cable MountainDeertrap Mountain, and the East Entrance Trailhead. Hike up the paved trail that zig-zags its way up the east side of the main canyon. Take your time; if you're not acclimated to uphill hiking, this could be quite strenuous. Soon enough you will come to the junction of the Hidden Canyon Trail; now it's time to choose the path less traveled!
