Angel's Landing is a breathtaking hike located in the awe-inspiring Zion National Park, offering spectacular, panoramic views of Zion Canyon. Permits are required for anyone to access this hike and are included in this tour along with a skilled guide who will guide you through this unforgettable experience. The trail is 5.4 miles round trip, with an elevation gain of 1,488 feet, and it will test your endurance and determination as you navigate steep switchbacks and a narrow, exposed spine with steep drop-offs on either side. The hike itself is moderate in difficulty. There will be a break for lunch, which is included in this tour. The tour provides in-depth explanations of the natural history and geology of the area, giving you a deeper understanding and appreciation of the surroundings. The final destination is a narrow sandstone ridge that will reward you with a sense of accomplishment and a view that you will remember forever. It's a hike not for the faint of heart, but for those who want to push themselves to new heights and experience the beauty of nature in its purest form.

Embark on a day trip from Las Vegas to Zion National Park. Explore the park’s towering sandstone cliffs, serene rivers, and scenic trails. Learn about the unique geology and natural history of the area as you visit key viewpoints, and hike along the River Side Walk. After pickup, enjoy a scenic drive through Southern Utah, arriving at Zion’s South Entrance. The park’s stunning landscape offers breathtaking views of deep canyons, massive rock formations, and vibrant plant life. Walk along the River Side Walk, where you can admire the Virgin River winding through the canyon and take in the surrounding beauty. Travel through the famous Carmel Tunnel and stop at key viewpoints along the way to capture Zion's diverse landscapes. Visit the Zion Visitor Center to delve into the park’s rich history and geology before heading to Canyon Junction for more panoramic views. Finish your day by visiting the Zion Museum and gift shop before returning to Las Vegas, concluding your unforgettable adventure in one of the nation's most iconic national parks.

We will meet at 7 a.m. at the Visitors' Center just past the South Entrance (in Springdale Utah). From there we will catch the shuttle to the Riverside Trail. This beautiful, shady 2-mile trail (round trip) will take us to the beginning of The Narrows Trail. We will wade upstream in the cool waters of the beautiful Virgin River for one or two miles, depending on your fitness level. The cliffs will rise on both sides of us to dizzying heights of about 2,000 feet, while the canyon itself becomes narrower and narrower. The views are spectacular! At the beginning of Wall Street take a break and enjoy mandarin oranges, granola bars and chips. You can also explore the Orderville Gulch, an even narrower canyon or go further up the Virgin River if you have the energy and desire. At that point we will turn around for the return trip to the Riverside Trail then back to the shuttle buses and from there to the Visitors' Center. Be aware that the nature of deep canyons is that the views on the return trip are completely different from those coming out, though equally stunning and ineffable (I just learned that word! It means "words can't express." Very apropos for this trail!) This is an unforgettable tour! Notice: The Narrows Hike is closed by Zion National Park when the volumetric flow exceeds 150 cubic feet per second, which usually happens only after extreme rainfall or snow runoff. High rainfall is infrequent, but runoff occurs each year from about April to June (sometimes March as well). Whenever high flow occurs we will find alternate trails for your enjoyment. Water shoes can be rented in Springdale but are not necessary in the summer, in my humble opinion. Walking staffs can also be rented in Springdale and are highly recommended, but I can provide a limited number for free (about 6). During the winter months it is advisable to rent waterproof waders and boots. I recommend renting from Zion Outfitters, just outside the Zion pedestrian entrance. Also, wear layers as it can get quite cold in Zion in the winter! In case of flash flood conditions (infrequent but not unknown) we will offer alternate hikes.

Take a half-day canyoneering trip and enjoy a multi-sport activity where your group works together to hike, climb, squeeze, and rappel across a variety of natural obstacles. This experience is customizable to any skill level- including people with no experience, family, or more experienced guests. After checking in at your meeting location in Springdale, listen to a safety briefing from your expert instructor and guide, get geared up, and prepare for your unforgettable canyoneering experience. You will be transported to the trailhead where your experience will officially begin. An experienced guide will show you the ropes so you can feel comfortable enjoying this unique adventure. The tour will end with transportation back to the meeting point in Springdale.

Saddle up and experience Zion National Park from a unique perspective. This is more than a typical trail ride and is great for both beginners and experienced riders. You will begin with a quick introduction and get acquainted with the horses. Learn their unique personalities as you prepare to spend the next two hours together. Your guide will demonstrate safe techniques for handling your horse. The ride begins by following a trail that winds up the side of Pine Knoll through the desert forest with an intense elevation increase. Eventually, the ride exits the forest and you'll get to see majestic sweeping views of Southern Utah and Zion National Park. At the summit, you'll pause to capture pictures that will help you remember this experience for years to come. Then, continue down the mountain, all the while learning about the area and wildlife while listening to western stories.
