Park near the tunnel entrance and hike up the hill, great views everywhere, big drop-offs over the railings.

A 5-star hike even though I tripped and fell face first into chilly water 15 minutes into hike. But well worth it. We rented dry suits and walking sticks (a must) from Zion Outfitters to stave off 40 degree water. Strong current walking upstream made for good workout, in some parts waist deep. Rocks underfoot, current and probing with stick... More

This place is really amazing and highly recommended. We spent 2 days in Zion as part of our half circle tour of the Utah canyons, and this was the first Canyon in our itinerary - we thoroughly enjoyed it! Now, in terms of practicalities, make sure you book your complete drysuit package beforehand, especially during peak season (unless if you're... More

This 17 mile hike will wear you out, but WHOA! The canyon walls towering over you on either side are breathtaking, and if you're lucky, some canyoneers may come rappelling down to land beside you! Or if you're even LUCKIER, you may BE one of those canyoneers! Tours are available! Enjoy!

With the Narrows you can choose to do a short trail along a tarmacked path at the beginning, or you can continue along the trail when it gets 'rough' and see what most people go there to see. Sadly my asthma was playing up at the time, so I just did the small trail, and it was still absolutely breaktaking!... More

Starting off at the end of the Riverwalk this is a trail in the Virgin River, the challenge of the hike depends on how high the water is. As with any hike check with the National Park Ranger station before starting out. The scenery is spectacular and given the right conditions, this is a great family hike. Ideally take only... More

I just got back yesterday from this top-down 16 mile backpacking trip. We paid Zion Adventure's to shuttle us at 6:30 am and started hiking at about 8:00 am. At the highest elevation point of the trail, there was frost on the ground and you could see your breath, so I'm assuming it was in the 30's. Our group was... More

Wow, I love this hike. Did it with my wife and daughter and we had a great time which is unusual for my daughter on a hike. It isn't that difficult if you have trekking poles and a good sense of balance. I like it so much that the very next day I hiked Angel's Landing early and did the... More

What a place! This is one of those MUST destinations you have to see. Walking stick and good shoes are good to have. Make sure there is not rains near by becouse of flash flouds.

My husband and I just returned from a trip to Zion Na. Park. We had done some research prior to our visit in order to prepare. It paid off, so here are some tips that made this hike absolutely amazing. Zion Adventures (located just outside the park entrance) rents a package that includes neoprene booties, the proper boot and a... More
