    Visiting Zion National Park was absolutely breathtaking. Living in Las Vegas and being raised in…read moreWashington, I really needed to see some greenery, and this trip delivered in every way. My hiking day was perfect, but I definitely recommend coming prepared. Pack snacks, a water bottle, sunscreen, a hat, and hiking poles if you have them. There are water refill stations throughout the park, which is super convenient and helps you stay hydrated on the trails. Also, get to the parking lot early. I arrived around 6:45 a.m. and it was already busy, so an early start really makes a difference. Overall, an unforgettable experience and one of the most beautiful places I've ever visited.

    Truly breathtaking. No camera could do it justice. The views entering the park alone where a treat,…read morebut the main activity I did was hiking the narrows. I had to sign a waver to get the proper wear for the trek, they offer special water-resistant (not water proof) socks and boots, and a walking stick. Hiking the narrows was very enjoyable, a fun challenge with amazing views of the massive canyon wall on either side of the trail. The current was decently strong, and the rocks in the river where slippery at points, which made the walking stick crucial for balance. The water was waist high at it's deepest point, but it really depends on the weather at the time. Lots of cool rock formations and vegetation around each corner in the narrows. The staff was amazing, bus drivers where great, and the ladies at the visitor center where helpful. Parking was a nightmere though, but it wasn't the fault of the park itself. At the time I went it was packed. Would certainly recommend you visit this place, just make sure you visit when it has been dry for the last few days with no rain in the forecast, which reduces the risk of flash flooding and too strong currents in the narrows. Have fun!

    This might just be my fave hike that we did during our whole trip to Zion! It's quite an adventure…read more- made me feel like a true explorer!! You'll be walking in dry creek beds and scrambling up dry, smooth waterfalls with chains of little pools (some really deep!) spilling down the mountains- and lots of rock scrambling up the mountains too- very similar to Angels Landing, but without the chains and maybe not quite as steep or dangerous for the most part. You start out going down the steep hill from the parking lot down into the Clear Creek bed and follow that until you get to the cool tunnel that takes you under highway 9. That's when you get into the Pine Creek bed that you'll pretty much follow the whole way. We definitely needed our poles and proper hiking boots. The rocks are smooth, slanted greatly in lots of places, and slick. This trail is definitely NOT for beginners - it's moderate in places and pretty strenuous in others. We made it up over 6000 feet as well! The trail isn't marked at all - very unclear - you'll really be dependent on a trail map - and it's not on the National Parks website or their maps! I think they like to keep it a secret lol. Luckily I had downloaded the trail map on the AllTrails app or we wouldn't never been able to do the whole trail. I highly recommend you do the same - and be sure to do it before you come into the park Bc we had ZERO signal most of the time. It's very much a hidden gem - we didn't see another soul and had the whole hike to ourselves! That being said, I would strongly recommend you don't hike this alone and bring bear spray and take all back country trail safety precautions. Parking is in a small lot not too long after the Mt Carmel tunnel (the big, main tunnel) and it'll be on your right. It has a tiny little building in it with a green roof which is the bathrooms yay!! They were fairly clean and well maintained but hardly had any TP so you may wanna bring some just in case.

    It was a bit hard to locate the trailhead, but so happy we didn't give up wandering in circles &…read morewere able to run into people who pointed us in the right direction, because it was gorgeous & fun! When parking at the main lot, where GPS "Many Pools Trailhead" will bring you to, stand facing the bathrooms, with the larger river on your right. Then head all the way to the left, down the hill towards the woods. You'll be able to see a small trail in the sand headed down the hill around the left, almost seemingly under the road...that's it! The trail leads through the wooded area, through a tunnel (easy to navigate despite having ample water), and into a clearing where you being to hike up flat rocks, seeing the pools as you ascend to the top. We thought the pools were fascinating, as they had various shapes, depths, and the occasional waterfall. Would say this is a moderate hike, because of the incline, timing is based solely on how long you'd want to wander around each section- we also explored the river section opposite the trail if you go right from the parking lot down to the "beach area"

(we visited over memorial day and they had plenty of everything) We rented two bikes for $40 each for the whole day. They were very decent and we were able to bike the entire scenic drive (8.1miles one way) there and back!

    This is absolutely the place to rent ebikes. I'm surprised there aren't more reviews. We rented…read morethe bikes online on Saturday afternoon for half day on Sunday. But then realized it should have been for all day. A quick call before they closed made it easy to change the length of the rental. We were met by Brian and Hannah at the store on Sunday morning. They give the best customer service with their knowledge, friendliness, and patience. They made sure we were on the right bikes for our height and comfort level. Each bike was taken around the store to make sure everything was in working order before we hopped on them. Rental includes the bike lock, helmet and carryon pack. The store location makes it so easy to get to Zion National Park. It's so much more convenient than waiting for the shuttle. The ebikes allowed us to stop wherever and whenever we wanted. There were so many photo opportunities that at times it was just a start and stop. As the day got hotter, the breeze from riding the ebike was refreshing. Even riding all day through the entire park with plenty of stops, the bikes still had plenty of charge left.
