ZION NATIONAL PARK
Pa'rus Trail
Location: Zion Canyon Visitor Center
Distance: 3.5 miles/approx. 2 hours.
One of the newer trails in Zion National Park, this is the perfect option for those looking for a leisurely and relatively non-strenuous. This trail is completely paved and flat for almost the entire trail. There are many bridges that allow for good stopping points to take in the unique and breathtaking scenery. There are also multiple points of river access to dip your feet and cool off in the summer months. This is an overall favorite!
Lower Emerald Pool Trail
Location: Zion Lodge
Distance: 1.2 miles/approx. 1 hour.
One of the most popular hikes in Zion National Park, a path to the lower section of Emerald Pools is breathtaking considering how short the walk is. The hike is just over 1 mile one way, leading to a beautiful calm waterfall with shining pools and lush vegetation. All ages will be able to experience and enjoy this secluded patch of heaven.
W
Location: Weeping Rock
Distance: 0.4 miles/approx. 0.5 hours.
Listed as one of the shortest official trails in the Park, it is still one of the most memorable. This steep, rock paved hike leads to a concave, watery alcove surrounded by lush green vegetation. Provides shade from the sun and s fine mist from the falling streams, this is one awesome Zion landmark you don' t want to miss!
