We are looking for one amazing day hike in the Zion area. Hoping to avoid big crowds. Love the river walking. Do you recommend one that time of year. I know, only one 🙁

My wife and I are planning a 3-day trip out there and want to make sure that we are seeing all that we can. We are planning in staying in a hotel at Zion National Park so that we can hike even more while we are there.

You should be able to get to the trailhead with a front wheel vehicle (we did). I don’t recall exactly when we left to catch sunrise, but it’s going to change depending on what time of year you visit. We use this app called Magic Hour to tell us when sunrise / magic hour will be in our exact location. We hike at roughly 2 miles an hour, so for the 3-mile trail, we left 1.5 hours before magic hour started.

Will it be crowded and any wild flowers yet? What about rain? We will be heading there March 17 of this year. I am so glad I found this article! Great read!

What month did you visit when you did your trip through Hidden Canyon? A mossy slot canyon sounds intriguing!

Heading out today to camp on BLM land outside of the park and was looking for the hidden treasures of Zion as the reason we go out to the wilderness is to soak in the beauty, not to be elbow-to-elbow with tourists!!
