ZION NATIONAL PARK ITINERARY: A LOW-KEY TRIP

This is is an overview of the trip we took to Zion in May 2021, and how we planned and had an excellent time spending just 2-3 days.

If you’re looking for a straightforward guide on how to get shuttle tickets, where to camp in Zion, etc. this will help you!

GO IN THE OFF SEASON OR SHOULDER SEASON

Consider visiting Zion outside of the busy summer months. While winter may be chilly, and some of the hikes not possible, it’s a stunning place in every season.

Every popular spot is going to be less crowded on weekdays.

AVOID WEEKENDS

START YOUR DAYS EARLY

Not just your hikes, but getting to the park itself. Parking is usually full by 8-9 am.

The Narrows and Angel’s Landing are the two most well-known “big” hikes, but there are plenty of other options to keep you busy.
