HIKING TOURS OF ZION NATIONAL PARK
UTAH, USA
Zion National Park is a must-see destination in the American Southwest! Join one of our Zion guided hiking tours to capture the beauty of this iconic Utah National Park.
Zion National Park, originally known as “Mukuntuweap” to the native Southern Paiute tribes, truly lives up to its name, meaning “straight canyon.” The park’s cliff walls extend over 2,000 feet above the canyon floor, creating stunning and dramatic landscapes. MountainBased Adventures’ Zion hiking tours allow you to explore this magnificent place where life thrives along the base of the canyon in serene cottonwood groves, lush hanging gardens, and meadows frequented by deer and turkey. The Virgin River winds peacefully through, making it hard to imagine that these waters have carved out the surrounding landscape.
This slice of heaven is a favorite location for Zion guided hiking tours. It serves as the perfect cherry-on-top of our Utah Mighty Five and Zion + Bryce Explored trips. We love ending our week of adventure with such dramatic scenery. Whether you traverse the canyon walls, wade through the Narrows, or just relax under a cottonwood tree near the historic Zion Lodge, we believe these hiking tours in Zion National Park will forever hold a special place in your heart, too.
