When the road through Zion Canyon was first constructed, it used to end here. The Grotto was home to the north campground, and the parks first Visitor Center. Those visiting The Grotto should not expect to find a cave, as it collapsed some time ago. Instead you'll find a charming little picnic area, and the trailhead to Angels Landing. You can also find the Kayenta trail here, it's a wonderful way approach the Emerald Pools.
