I am told that bighorn sheep were reintroduced to Zion National Park about 20 years ago. Now, if you are lucky, you can catch a glimpse of them on the east side of the park, like we did. From what I know, they hang out on the east side of the big (1 mile long) tunnel and they are often... more

There is a serenity to the canyon in Zion. Mountains tower over you and the colors change pepending on the time of day. It's a feeling as much as an attraction. more

We took a long trip out west and was vitsiting national parks. We actually came upon Zion National Park by accident. We had never heard of it or planned to visit there. We were driving through Utah and the road we were on took us to the gate entrance. The p;ark ranger asked if we would like to enter the... more

This place is awesome.. Pictures will not show the grandeur of this canyon. The free shuttle takes you through a wonderful tour of the main canyon.. For a complete tour, take an auto tour of the other road and up through the tunnel. It is mile after mile of scenery like you have never seen. I am not prone to... more

Zion N.P. is probably my favorite one in the USA. No, it is not as fantastic as the Grand Canyon or majestic as Yosemite but it is so quietly and understatedly just plain beautiful. Being much less visited than either of those two or Yellowstone, it is also less "spoiled" and you can move around much more freely without bumping... more

We spent two days at Zion. The shuttle system is first rate. Shuttles are clean, comfortable and have enough stops to get you to all the various points of interest or trailheads. Park is clean and well marked. We also drove on the Kolob Terrace Road through an area not usually visited. Well worth the drive. Lots of lodging and... more

Loved Zion, first week of Oct. was perfect weather.....great hiking but what was labeled as a moderate hike for the Upper Emerald Pools was quite steep and very rocky but worth the effort. more

Zion was easy to maneuver and had great trails. The lodging outside the park was great as well as the restaurants. Good mexican and the best burgers at Oscar's Cafe. The Zion shuttle was also easy to use and available. more

I was on a 3-day trip from Vegas with only 2 days and 1 night in Zions. After researching, I knew I wanted to do the Narrows and Angels Landing. September was a wonderful time to see this park, although waiting another couple of weeks would have been even better to experience the color changes in the trees. It was... more

We really enjoyed our visit to Mt. Zion. The free shuttle that runs the park is a great way to see it. Buses run every 5 minutes, so it is easy to hop-on and hop-off as desired. Because of our limited time, we chose to just ride and enjoy the view. The drivers also give some narration, which my parents... more
