Zion National Park ⛰️

About 7 years ago I visited Zion National Park, but I was on a trip with the Marine Corps so my time and experience was a little limited. We camped out for 2 nights and left. The group I went with had lots of junior marines and not all were quite accustomed to the hiking life yet so I was unable to do Angels Landing, so that is DEFINITELY on my bucket list. What other hikes should I do? What should I see and experience while there? Any tips on where to stay or how to get good deals for things around the area? I’ll most likely camp inside the park. What are your must have camping essentials? What’s your favorite camping memory?

... Read moreZion National Park, known for its stunning landscapes and challenging hikes, offers a unique experience for both novice and experienced hikers. If you plan to visit, consider exploring famous trails such as the iconic Angels Landing, with its breathtaking views that truly deserve a spot on your bucket list. For additional hikes, the Narrows presents a memorable trek through the Virgin River with towering canyon walls on either side, perfect for those looking to immerse themselves in nature's beauty. When camping in the park, be sure to check for the necessary permits and camp at designated campgrounds such as the South Campground or Watchman Campground, both of which provide convenient access to trailheads and facilities. Essential camping gear includes a quality tent, sleeping bag, portable stove, and plenty of hydration options. Don’t forget to pack your favorite snacks and a first-aid kit to ensure a safe adventure. For those seeking budget-friendly tips, consider visiting during the shoulder seasons (spring or fall) to avoid crowds and potentially lower rates on lodging and amenities. Engaging with local online communities on platforms like Lemon8 can also yield valuable advice from fellow travelers, helping you find hidden gems and tips to enhance your Zion experience. Whatever adventures you choose, Zion National Park promises memorable experiences surrounded by nature.

A must see National Park 🏞️ Be prepared for the heat. Bring LOTS of water. Can’t stress that enough. Bring small portable fans, cooling rags and really good hiking shoes. Wear lots of sunscreen as well. 🥾 The trails aren’t all that easy so be prepared. Most of them are in full sun and when i

Stay in a wagon Zion National Park
I’m not a big camping person, but when I found this Glamping hotel I was all in, just 20 min from the main entrance to Zion this is a must. You can choose from wagon with your own outdoor cooking area, or a teepee with your personal sauna spa. It’s affordable and great place to make memories. Insid
