Zion National Park Feature

Top Reasons to Go to Zion National Park

Varicolored cliffs: Take the Angels Landing Trail, which culminates in one of the park's many astounding viewpoints full of pink, orange, and crimson rock formations.

Auto immunity: During the busy summer season, cars are no longer allowed in Zion Canyon, allowing for a relaxing and scenic shuttle bus ride.

Botanical wonderland: Zion Canyon is home to approximately 900 species of plants, more than anywhere else in Utah.

Animal tracks: Zion has expansive hinterlands where furry, scaly, and feathered residents are common. Hike long enough and you'll encounter deer, elk, rare lizards, birds of prey, and other zoological treats.

Unforgettable canyoneering: Zion's array of rugged slot canyons is the richest place on earth for scrambling, rappelling, climbing, and descending.
