Zion National Park Tours and Activities
96 Reviews
Carved over time by the Virgin River, Zion National Park is a remarkable 148,000-acre (59,893-hectare) stretch of white, pink, and red rock formations in southern Utah's canyon country. The state's first national park draws hikers, birders, and nature lovers with its cliffs and mesas, waterfalls and wildflowers, and varied wildlife from jackrabbits to condors.
The Basics
When to Get There
Zion park is open 24 hours a day, all year round, but certain areas close or have reduced hours based on the season or weather conditions. If you're looking to avoid the heat and crowds, visit in late spring or fall. Regardless of the season, be prepared for temperatures that can shift by up to 30°F in the course of a day, depending on elevation and time.

The Basics
While the Grand Canyon may be the most famous natural wonder of the American Southwest, Zion Canyon is a gem all on its own. Opt to see the highlights on a guided day trip from Las Vegas or on a multi-canyon getaway that combines a trip to Zion with visits to Bryce Canyon, Monument Valley, and/or the Grand Canyon. Independent travelers can also join limited free programs offered by National Park Service rangers.

Best Zion National Park Hikes
While there are over a dozen major hiking trails in the park, a few stand out. The Zion Narrows gorge allows hikers to walk through the Virgin River between two towering rock walls. Many Narrows hikers start at the Temple of Sinawava via the Riverside Walk and then hike upstream before doubling back and finishing where they started. Another favorite is Angels Landing, an intense 5-mile (8-km) trail that rewards brave hikers with sweeping views at the summit. Emerald Pools Trail serves as a great place to hike alongside multiple waterfalls and glistening pools.
