ZION NATIONAL PARK- OBSERVATION POINT

Things to do: Chill, Photography, Hike

Fee: National Parks Pass accepted

Skill Level:  Intermediate-Strenuous

Season: Year Round

Trail Type: Out-and-Back

RT Distance: 8 Miles

Elevation Gain: Long steep climb- Peak: 6508 ft.

This trail is definitely an amazing hike. You go through changes in rock color and the view at the end is immaculate. I wouldn't bring my kids on this hike as it has drop offs and steep cliff sides. I'll wait until they are a bit older!

Finding the trail: Once inside Zion Park you will find the trailhead at the  Weeping Rock trailhead. Observation Point shares the first part of the trail with the East Rim and Hidden Canyon Trails and branches off the Weeping Rock Trail at the trailhead.
















Location: Zion National Park, Utah, USA

Snow Canyon- Sand Dunes

Image
We absolutely love going and playing in the sand at Snow Canyon. The kids will spend a good hour running around and exploring. They ask to go every time we are there. It can be windy some times. You will also want to bring some water. Make sure the clean their pockets and shoes before getting back into the car! To find the Dunes -Enter Snow Canyon

Pioneer Park- Free

Pioneer Park This park is located off of Red Hills Pkwy up above the Dixie. It is free and so fun to explore for an hour or 2. I believe there are 2 slots you can climb through. Always people rock climbing and adventuring. Perfect for kids to run and climb on the red rock. Pioneer Park Its right next to the Red Hills Garden which is also free so make an afternoon of it!
