| Zion National Park is one of the gems of the National Park system and one of Utah's most beloved tourist destinations. The park is located in the far southwestern corner of Utah, where the Colorado Plateau meets the mountains and valleys of the Great Basin. The sculptured cliffs of Zion Canyon provide visitors with landscapes of unmatched beauty and diversity. It offers many trails ranging from easy walks to the strenuous adventures.
The Virgin River, a 200-mile long tributary of the Colorado River, is one of the few undammed rivers in the western U.S and it flows through Zion Canyon. It is solely responsible for carving Zion National Park?s spectacular scenery which includes towering rock monoliths and narrow canyons like the Zion Narrows, a 16-mile stretch of river where the canyon walls are only 15 feet apart in some places. |
