5 Most Epic Hikes in Zion National Park
"What Makes It Epic: Arguably the most famous hike in Zion National Park. Sheer drops of up to 1,000 feet on either side of a narrow sandstone trail make it a must for adrenaline junkies. Length: 4.8 miles round trip from the trailhead to the top of Angel’s Landing, 1,500 feet above the canyon floor"

Best Views in Zion National Park
"Rising 1,500-feet above the floor of Zion Canyon, Angels Landing offers stunning, 360-degree views in the heart of the park. The only challenge is getting there. From The Grotto Shuttle Stop (#6), the Angels Landing Trail heads 2.5 miles (4 kilometers) to the summit."

The Ultimate Guide to Exploring Zion National Park
"5 miles round-trip from The Grotto trailhead, 1630 feet of elevation gain. Be warned that there are some sections of exposure and people have died hiking this trail. Angel’s Landing is in the main canyon and requires a shuttle to access from spring-fall."

The best hikes in Zion National Park
"A hike doesn’t quite cut it – this is an adventure that will have you wading through ankle-deep (sometimes waist-deep) river passages, jumping in sandstone swimming pools and doing the odd bit of rock scrambling. This is Zion’s most popular slot canyon hike. You can either start at the Riverside Walk at the Temple of Sinawava and go from the bottom up, or from the Chamberlain Ranch and go from the top down if you want the full canyoneering experience."

"Spend your second day in the park exploring The Narrows. They are continually changing and are one of the top highlights of Zion National Park, especially if you visit in the warmer months. This is a great hike to keep you cool as much of the hike you’ll be wading through a river. Check out our Narrows hiking guide for more information."

How to Plan a Successful 1 Week Utah National Parks Road Trip Itinerary
"Zion National Park has a couple of famous hikes like Angels Landing and the Narrows. Angels Landing is a strenuous and steep hike to reach the lookout over Zion Canyon. The Narrows treks through the Virgin River and is open only when the water levels and current are safe. Unfortunately, it was closed when I went."

"If you want to start your day with chicken-fried steak (or chicken-fried chicken for that matter), this is the place to be. Porter’s country breakfast potatoes are fantastic. Steak, seafood, barbecue, burgers, and oversize desserts dominate the menu, but the Red Mountain Utah Trout, with its honey maple glaze, is an underrated gem."
