Zion National Park

Utah

Zion National Park in southwestern Utah protects a dramatic landscape of red and cream sandstone cliffs, narrow canyons, and the Virgin River. The park's shuttle road and famous hikes like Angels Landing and The Narrows make it one of the most visited parks in the country.

Zion anchors the southern end of Utah's Mighty Five road trip circuit. The red cliffs of the canyon, the Virgin River below, and the desert roads linking Zion to Bryce, Capitol Reef, and the Grand Canyon make this one of the most scenic regions to drive in America.
