zion's main canyon

来美国参观了四个国家公园，门票是年卡，八十美元，一车人一张票就可以了，很划得来，这个公园是我们参观的第一个公园，我们只是穿过，听说徒步很好玩。

离开LV不远就到了zion，这里突出的特点就是红色的山还有印第安人的一些遗址据说深入徒步比较有意思，但因行程关系只是横穿了zion公园可玩的不多，也没有特别的景致吧

我们去美西的时候时冬天，大部分的国家公园都很冷，当我们到锡安国家公园的时候发现这里由于海拔比较低，气温也上升很快，居然已经有春天的气息了。周末，很多人从城里跑到锡安国家公园，显得有点拥挤 ，建议体力好的朋友去体验著名的angel landing徒步路线 我们尝试了一下 很遗憾半途而废了 如果只是开车游 这里地表的多样性也让人大开眼界 如果是夏天来 还可以溯溪 当然 人比冬天要多上十倍

This makes my list of one of the 10 most beautiful places in the world. Looking up at the majestic peaks, waterfalls, and rock formations is really a spiritual experience

We hiked Mystery Canyon which ends in the Narrows and camped at the entrance to the canyon. You either have to book this way in advance or get really lucky. We all got in late and had a great time. Kind of cool staying in the park over night even if it is at the entrance. I have been through the canyon many times and this was the first to camp in the campground.

I read several places where this was a nice day trip out of Las Vegas, just 2 1/2 hours. Not true. First off it took us 4 hours to get there and 5 hours back. What I never read was that when you drive thru the park, you come out miles east of where you entered. (no where upon entering do you know this) When you come out, you suddenly find yourself at a completely isolated unknown area, can either go on east or turn around and drive back thru again the laborious switchback mountains of the canyon. There are no houses, cars, stores, nothing but deserted land.We drove east (opposite direction, we wanted to go west) for 26 miles until we came upon a town, Mt Carmel. The man at the gas station said people are constantly stopping asking for directions as they find themselves as lost as we did. It took us 5 hours to go back to Vegas this way, driving in the dark which was not fun.The area is beautiful, if you are in the area, great to see.

We are pretty well traveled and Zion ranks at or near the top of the most beautiful places we have ever seen. We were able to cram in memorable hikes on 3 of the trails, and regretted not having enough time for more--especially Angels Landing. We will be back...

Some of the most beautiful rocks and cliffs this canyon is very well named we were here last year and came back around the same time we loved it even better this time!

Worth the drive. Plan on spending the day. Pack a lunch and enjoy many easy hikes to points of interest. Anxious to go back and hike the narrows.

Zion is one of my favorite national parks. The sheer size of some of the mountains, while you are down in the canyon makes you feel somewhat insignificant (but in a good way). You have to take the shuttle, which was not bad. My family and I pretty much got off at every single stop. Took us maybe 1.5 hrs to do the entire road.

Few things are truly impossible but here lives one of them.To walk the trail at the foot of Zion Canyon and, at the end, say "I do not believe in God" (or anything similar) is just impossible.Some such being far beyond man has created a place to inspire devotion to Him no matter what religion you believe in.Man can create towers and bridges and monuments - only a God could create Zion Canyon.Bryce Canyon is beautiful beyond words or comparisons but Zion in simply inspiring beyond measure.And be sure to drive to the North entrance and do that area as well.

The weather for January was beautiful. The park was not real crowded which made for a pleasureable day with driving and short hikes. This is a great place but need several days to do it justice.

We came in after a big snow storm and it was just beautiful. It was a highlight of our 6 weeks in the USA. Majestic.

The snow contrast with the red rock was awe inspiring. Icicles hung off of the rock formations. Parking is a problem due to the popularity of the park. Talked with travelers from Germany who also were stunned by the views. It's well worth your time.

Traveling through the main canyon is a beautiful experience. Trees and the river at eye level, towering cliffs all around. Very peaceful.
