Duration: 20 minutes

Stop At: Zion National Park
1 Zion Park Blvd, Utah
Zion National Park is the third most visited park in the United States—and for good reason! Mesas and mountains, cliffs and canyons, Zion’s beauty draws in visitors from all over the world. We’ll take you on an epic adventure from La Verkin up through famous Zion Canyon, and exit out of East Zion—a little over 50 miles on an unforgettable journey. Along the way, we’ll stop at inspiring overlooks, abandoned ghost-towns, slot canyons, ancient pictographs, and more! Shaka Guide gives you the freedom to choose where and how we explore Zion.
Duration: 2 hours

Stop At: Zion Canyon Visitor Center
118 Lion Blvd, Springdale, Utah
We made it to Zion Canyon! Here at our first park stop, take a moment to talk to the rangers, grab a map, use the restroom, and fill up your water bottles. If you need a wilderness permit, this is where you’ll pick one up. Be sure to check the schedule for any ranger talks or walks you might be interested in. There is also a bookstore and gift shop, but it’s probably best to save all that for after your hikes. When you’re ready, get in line for the shuttle (if it's shuttle season) and get ready for adventure!
Duration: 20 minutes

Stop At: Zion Human History Museum
1 Zion Park Blvd, Zion National Park, Springdale, Utah
If you pull into the Zion Human History Museum, you can make your way over to the back patio of the Human History Museum to enjoy a highly-recommended ranger talk.

Duration: 10 minutes

Stop At: Court of the Patriarchs
Zion Canyon Scenic Dr., , Utah

Stop At: Angel's Landing
West Rim Trail, , Utah
Exit at The Grotto to begin your epic ascent up to Angel’s Landing—a thrilling chain-assisted climb up a narrow precipice! When you reach the top, you’ll earn both bragging rights and an incredible view. If you aren’t feeling up to the climb, simply stop at Scout’s Lookout for an equally stunning vista. If you go all the way up to Angel’s Landing it’s about 5-miles round-trip. Though Angel’s Landing itself is only an extra half-mile each way, crowding and difficulty can add a great deal of time. Please note: Angel's Landing now requires a permit. Permits are not included with entry to the park or purchase of the tour.

Stop At: Zion-Mt. Carmel Tunnel

In 1929, Zion had one tiny problem standing in the way of connecting it to the Grand Canyon and the rest of the world. Namely, Mt.Carmel. But to let a little thing like a mountain stand in the way?

Duration: 5 minutes

Stop At: Canyon Overlook Trail

Stop At: Checkerboard Mesa
Zion-Mount Carmel Hwy., 1 mi west of the East Entrance, Utah
