There are three Emerald Pools. The lower one is almost accessible from Zion Lodge. To the other two lead demanding ways. At present (October 2019) it is not possible to move on from the lower lake to the others. The path ends behind the waterfalls. The upper lakes can be reached from Grotto via the Kayenta Trail.

A simple hiking trail is rewarded with magnificent views and a small waterfall and several small lakes.
