The iconic Zion National Park lies at the intersection of three major ecosystems - the Mojave Desert, the Colorado Plateau and the Great Basin. From the top of Angels Landing to the bottom of The Narrows, this desert oasis is full of possibilities. The peace and tranquility of this region inspired early pioneers to give it the name it bears today, which means something like a place of refuge or sanctuary.

Hiking

There's little shade. Bring sunscreen. If you prefer a quieter setting, this trail isn't really for you. Many tourists visit the trail, and increasingly, many of them are riding fast e-bikes.
