Lower Emerald Pool Trail

01/18/23

Came here after angels landing . This part of the park isn’t as crowded. Come during sunset and you can get a nice reflection from the water of the mountains and sky. You get a different view. Still just as pretty. Not as cold or windy as being up high in the mountains. A little easier trek and good for people who are afraid of heights and family. It is not as strenuous.

Upper Emerald Pool

Start this trail walking across the bridge over the Virgin River into the start of the trails that lead to the pools. The path takes you through the bottoms of the water falls and you see them falling over the rocks above you.

Lady Mountain

Begin by taking the shuttle to the Zion Lodge, where you can fill up on water for the day of steep hiking and scrambling ahead. Walk as if to the Emerald Pools, but after crossing the bridge immediately take a sharp left. Several hundred feet down the trail you will notice a closed and unmaintained path leading up and to your right. Take this trail and follow it through a steeply eroded section...

Angels Landing

Angels Landing has long been one of my favorite Zion National Park hikes. The hike is thrilling, extremely photogenic, and appeals to those who enjoy exchanging leg power for views. The hike to the top isn't long, 2+ miles, but you'll definitely feel the 1500 feet of gain! The trail features a mostly paved surface (to protect from erosion and high use), steep switch backs, a cool canyon, rock ...

Court of the Patriarchs Viewpoint Trail

Hike the Sand Bench Trail

The Sand Bench Trail is a loop trail and starts at the Court of the Patriarchs shuttle stop. The trail makes a loop which is approximately 3.6 miles long. The trail can be accessed across the road from the shuttle stop. Look for a water tank and bridge crossing the Virgin River. Although often overlooked, the Sand Bench Trail is a great hike for several reasons. Firstly, the trail gains only 5...

Aid Climbing Moonlight Buttress

Moonlight Buttress follows an amazing system of cracks up some really solid sandstone. The route is 5.8 C1 and is very straightforward. Hauling on the first few pitches is an absolute nightmare, but spending the night on the wall is spectacular. To get more info on the route check out the following link: Mountain Project
