Answer
A
The rest area near the hikers appeared in the distance after hiking for hours.
B
After hiking for hours, the hikers saw the rest area appear in the near distance.
C
The hikers near the rest area appeared in the distance after hiking for hours.
D
After hiking for hours, in the near distance the hikers appeared at the rest area.

Explanation

The opening phrase “After hiking for hours” should describe the people who did the hiking, not the rest area. Choice B makes “the hikers” the subject of that phrase: the hikers had been hiking and then saw the rest area. The other choices leave the sentence’s logic unclear or make it sound as though the rest area or the hikers appeared in the distance.
