Of all the hikes I've ever done in my life (including trekking in Nepal), this was the most "challenging". But it was an amazing and unique hike, very different, just be prepared to be wet (and cold). We were in waist deep water at times, but that wasn't the difficult part, it was when the water was rushing, trying to... More

Very unique hike. We have never done anything like it and had a blast. We did the bottom up and was only in the canyon for 5 hrs. Move about 1 mile an hour. Next time we will do the top down which is 15 or 16 miles. More

We just got home from a great vacation in UT. We visited Zion 3 times and loved it!! Our first day we hiked the lower and middle Emerald Pools - lovely!! nice hike, not hard at all. We also hiked the trail to Weeping Rock. It was steep but also beautiful and short. We finished our first day with the... More

there are no words to describe the beauty of this hike, but you can do a couple things to make sure you enjoy it at its max. first make sure to go get your hiking poles, neoprene sucks and shoes that won't be slippery while walking on the river those thing are a MOST have, we did this hike on...

This area of Zion is popular for good reason! The towering walls above you are incredible. I would highly recommend including a visit to The Narrows in any visit to Zion. If at all possible, try hiking into The Narrows from the top rather than accessing it from the bottom. This makes it a much longer hike and can involve... More

This hike is such an adventure!!! The only reason this hike is tough, is because you are traveling through water most of the time. We went end of March and the water was freezing!! If you exit the national park on the right side down the road there is an adventure store where it is recommended to call before hand... More

We hiked the Narrows May 2 and loved it. The water in spring is higher and colder, but still doable. We almost bailed on the trip last minute due to my wife's inability to swim, but decided to give it a try anyway. We rented drysuits and other equipment from Zion Adventure Co in springdale and that helped tremendously. Others... More

16 miles, 14 hours, wading through freezing water with the looming threat of a flash flood... What could be better!!? This canyon is the most intense place I've ever been. Don't forget your dry bag and your seal skin socks and you'll have a amazing hike! More

It does not get much better than the Zion Narrows. I am a seasoned canyoneer, but of all the canyons I have been in, the Zion Narrows is still the best. It's beauty is simply unsurpassed. There is of course charm to those canyons that are done with a rope, but I think the Narrows will still always be my... More
