Observation Point

Observation Point is one of the best hikes in Zion National Park. Climb up through Echo Canyon (left) and you’ll be rewarded with incredible views, including looking down on Angel’s Landing from above (right)!

The Narrows

The Narrows is one of the most unique hikes in Zion National Park. For much of the hike, you’ll be walking THROUGH a river. Be sure to bring (or rent) waterproof socks and quick-drying shoes!

HIDDEN CANYON

This hike is a great way to see a part of Zion that most people skip over completely or don’t even realize is there. I’m dubbing it the “secret” hike because for the most part, that’s exactly what it is.

HOW TO GET AROUND ZION NATIONAL PARK?

In a bid to cut down on congestion within the park and also to limit pollution, the National Park Service runs regular, free shuttle busses throughout the park and even out into the nearby town of Springdale, Utah.

If you’re visiting Zion between February and November, the only way to get around the park is by using the free shuttle service. You’ll need to park your car somewhere in Springdale and then board the shuttle into the park.
