Full description

Explore the slot canyons of East Zion and ride in a UTV on this adventure tour. With a guide driving you around, sit back and enjoy the experience. Navigate through diverse terrain to reach the canyons and then hike to explore the deepest parts of these remote areas.


Start with a thrilling ride in a customized off-road machine leading to a slot canyon, far from any paved roads. Once at the canyon's mouth, the hike begins. The red canyon walls stretch over 100 feet high on either side, with a gap of only 6-10 feet between the walls to hike through.

Led by a guide and local expert, the tour continues on foot through the canyon while learning about Native American history and geographical information. Large boulders frequent the route, requiring climbs of 8-10 feet with the guide's assistance.


After traveling the desired distance into the canyon and capturing stunning pictures of these sandstone formations, hike the same route back to the vehicle and return to the meeting location.



*Please note you must be physically capable of climbing up and over 8-10ft tall boulders. This is a fairly strenuous tour.
*Certain months of the year, there may be standing water present in the canyons. During these times, we will take an alternate route to a second slot canyon, to ensure our guests stay safe and dry!
