Zion National Park has a well earned reputation as one of the most beautiful places on Earth and is just a 48 minute scenic drive from the Condo! The park contains numerous well kept trials that range from easy walks to strenuous climbs. Our favorites are Emerald Pools, Angels Landing, and The Riverside Walk. The park can get very crowded during the on-season which runs from April through September, and we recommend considering visiting during the off-season if you would like to avoid the crowds!

Kolob canyon is a lesser known part of Zion National Park that is not directly connected to the main canyon of Zion. This separation from the main canyon makes it less crowded and also a great place to take a scenic drive and hike the numerous trails. Timber Creek Overlook is a short and easy trail that ends at a stunning view point. If you are looking for a more strenuous all day hike, Kolob Arch is a great choice that leads to the second largest arch in the world! Wow!

Snow Canyon State Park is often overshadowed by Zion but has become a favorite of ours over the years. The park is a short 23 minute drive through St George, making the park a great activity to plan around getting breakfast or dinner at any of the wonderful restaurants in the city. Snow canyon shares the red rock scenery of Zion while feeling more low key and private. There's not only hiking trails but also places to climb, and bike. Don't have or don't want to bring climbing or biking equipment? Click here to see rental businesses near Snow Canyon. We recommend biking Whiptail Trail, a paved trail that follows the road through the park. We also love the Hidden Pinyon trail because of its stunning overlooks and connections to other trails.
