Itinerary
This is a typical itinerary for this product
Stop At: Zion National Park, Zion National Park, Utah
If you want to pick one spectacular park to visit, it’s tough to find anything better than Zion. This park can tend to get crowded, so we try to take off early if the group wants to hike the ever popular Angel’s Landing.
Our goal will be to get there as early as possible to either hike Angel’s Landing (exposure and elevation) or the Emerald Pools loop (no exposure, less elevation). After a lunch and rest at the Zion Lodge, we will continue to work our way up the valley, culminating in a hike of The Narrows at the top of the valley. Should the Narrows not be open due to flooding or expected rain, the group has numerous options across the East and West portions of the park, including roads going through giant holes in the mountain and overlooks of Zion from above the canyon.
Heading home, we can grab a quick bite to eat in St. George, any may even be treated to the Milky Way if there is no moon and no clouds between St. George and Las Vegas.
Duration: 12 hours
Stop At: Angel's Landing, West Rim Trail, Zion National Park, UT
Guests will be able to select from two hikes to start the day, the first of which is Angel's Landing. This is NOT for the feint of heart, as it involves elevation, exposure, and hiking up a narrow rock ridge with a chainlink guide. However, for the adventurous, the payoff are 360 degree panoramic views of the entire canyon as it fills with the first light of the day.
Duration: 4 hours
Stop At: Emerald Pools, Zion National Park, UT
If Angel's Landing seems like a bit much, Emerald Pools will be more your speed. Minimal elevation gain and no exposure allows us to travel along the canyon wall edge, eventually coming to the Emerald Pools. These pools show how the water flows from the canyons walls through smaller streams and into the Virgin River, which ultimately carved Zion canyon.
Duration: 3 hours
Stop At: Zion National Park, Zion National Park, Utah
After the morning hike, we will use the Zion bus transport to visit numerous sits through the canyon including Three Sisters, Weeping Rock, and numerous other easily accessible stops.
Duration: 2 hours
Stop At: The Narrows, Zion National Park, UT
The world famous Narrows starts at the top of Zion canyon at the Temple of Sinawava. Here, the canyon narrows and hikers only option is to hike IN the Virgin River. Hikers can go for 10+ miles upstream and even camp on riverbeds. We will either do a deeper hike into the Narrows, or a shorter one if the group wants to hike to Observation Point for sunset.
Duration: 2 hours
Stop At: Observation Point, Zion National Park, UT
While the group may want to take more time in the Narrows, those who want to fit in one more hike can visit Observation Point. We can either hike 2.5 miles and 2,500 feet up (5 miles roundtrip) or drive to the east side of the park and hike 3.5 miles (7 miles roundtrip) with minimal elevation gain. The payoff is a view from the very top and back of the canyon, with entire canyon in front of you as it fills with the last light of sunset. The group must be comfortable hiking back in the dark, using headlamps provided by ECA.
Duration: 4 hours
