Where to practice an individual sport Zion National Park

Want to go on a Narrows trip but don't have the equipment, tubing down the Virgin River, biking through Zion, climbing the walls, canyoneering, or hiking in the summer or winter with snowshoes on your feet? Zion Outfitter will rent you the equipment you need and provide you with knowledgeable guides at any time of the day or night. This outdoor store even offers a shower service.

Canyon Rides offers guided horseback rides in Zion National Park in two formats. The first ride (1 hour) is a walk along the Virgin River. The second tour is a 3-hour ride along the Sand Beach Trail, a several-mile trail with a 300-foot elevation gain. This walk will give you a spectacular view of the southern end of Zion. A great experience. There are several times during the day. Canyon Rides also offers other tours at Grand Canyon (North Rim) and Bryce Canyon.

After the first 1,600 m of Riverside Walk, the walk takes place in water, often up to the knees. There are no groomed trails, and the only path is the river. The current is fast, the water cold and the stones slippery. This is the park's most popular thrill ride. It's very important to check with the Visitor Center in advance not only about weather conditions, but also about the difficulty of the hike and the equipment needed to brave the river's cold waters.
