Zion is extremely popular. It is among the top 3 most popular National Parks and for good reason\u2014it\u2019s really beautiful. But if you\u2019re planning to visit Zion National Park soon, you should know that it is incredibly busy and crowded, <em>especially <\/em>during the late spring and summer months. So be prepared for that and plan accordingly with the following tips:<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"How_to_Avoid_Crowds_in_Zion_National_Park\"\/>How to Avoid Crowds in Zion National Park<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"\/><\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li>\n<h4><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Don%E2%80%99t_go_just_kidding_But_pick_a_good_time\"\/>Don\u2019t go (just kidding! But pick a good time)<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"\/><\/h4>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<h4><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Go_in_the_off_season_or_shoulder_season\"\/>Go in the off season or shoulder season<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"\/><\/h4>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Consider visiting Zion outside of the busy summer months. While winter may be chilly, and some of the hikes not possible, it\u2019s a stunning place in every season. As an added bonus, you don\u2019t have to worry about shuttles in winter: the Zion Canyon road is open to private cars at that time!<\/p>\n<p>Every popular spot is going to be less crowded on weekdays.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>The best way to beat the crowds is to start early. Not just your hikes, but getting to the park itself. Even the National Park Service recommends getting to Zion hella early, or parking in Springdale. <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.nps.gov\/zion\/planyourvisit\/traffic.htm\">According to the website<\/a>, \u201c<b>Parking<\/b>\u00a0is usually full by 8-9 am. The best way to avoid delays entering\u00a0<b>Zion<\/b>\u00a0is to\u00a0<b>park<\/b>\u00a0in Springdale and ride the town shuttle to the\u00a0<b>park<\/b>.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>On our trip, we hiked The Narrows on a Saturday morning (broke the rule of avoiding weekends, whoops). We got started around 8am on our shuttle, so were hiking around 8:30am. It was fairly busy, but not overly so at this time. However, on our way BACK down The Narrows a couple of hours later, the once-pristine river was beginning to take on a zoo-like quality. In all honesty, it was hard to find places to walk and we had to take turns with other hikers in many spots along the way. So go, early\u2014like 7am early.<\/p>\n<p>You\u2019ll definitely want to arrive early to the park in general. Lines to get in (both car and pedestrian\/bike entrances) were growing long by mid-morning. And as the NPS recommends, it may be advisable to park somewhere in Sprindale (the town right by the park) and take one of the town shuttles to the park proper. The parking within Zion fills up FAST.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>\n<h4><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Choose_less_popular_hikesstops\"\/>Choose less popular hikes\/stops<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"\/><\/h4>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Another option for having a chill trip to Zion may involve selecting less-popular sites and hikes. This isn\u2019t ideal for every traveler; some of us couldn\u2019t THINK of visiting Zion without tackling <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/alexonthemap.com\/angels-landing-permit\/\">Angel\u2019s Landing<\/a>. But if you\u2019re more flexible, you may find you have a better experience. The Narrows and Angel\u2019s Landing are the two most well-known \u201cbig\u201d hikes, but there are plenty of other options to keep you busy.<\/p>\n<p>We heard many travelers talking about Emerald Pools trails being really worthwhile. On one day, we hiked The Watchman trail, which was not particularly busy (though we did climb it in the heat of the day\u2014another big NO-NO. Please learn from our mistakes lol!) We loved this hike, which had some challenging uphill sections but ended with spectacular views.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-large wp-image-21309 aligncenter\" alt=\"A small hiking path leading around a red rock formation. \" width=\"1024\" height=\"768\" srcset=\"https:\/\/twodrifters.us\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/20210514_134941-1024x768.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/twodrifters.us\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/20210514_134941-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/twodrifters.us\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/20210514_134941-768x576.jpg 768w, https:\/\/twodrifters.us\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/20210514_134941-1536x1152.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/twodrifters.us\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/20210514_134941-2048x1536.jpg 2048w, https:\/\/twodrifters.us\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/20210514_134941-853x640.jpg 853w, https:\/\/twodrifters.us\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/20210514_134941-150x113.jpg 150w, https:\/\/twodrifters.us\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/20210514_134941-scaled.jpg 1232w\" data-lazy-sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" src=\"https:\/\/twodrifters.us\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/20210514_134941-1024x768.jpg\"\/><\/p>\n<p><noscript><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-large wp-image-21309 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/twodrifters.us\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/20210514_134941-1024x768.jpg\" alt=\"A small hiking path leading around a red rock formation. \" width=\"1024\" height=\"768\" srcset=\"https:\/\/twodrifters.us\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/20210514_134941-1024x768.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/twodrifters.us\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/20210514_134941-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/twodrifters.us\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/20210514_134941-768x576.jpg 768w, https:\/\/twodrifters.us\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/20210514_134941-1536x1152.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/twodrifters.us\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/20210514_134941-2048x1536.jpg 2048w, https:\/\/twodrifters.us\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/20210514_134941-853x640.jpg 853w, https:\/\/twodrifters.us\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/20210514_134941-150x113.jpg 150w, https:\/\/twodrifters.us\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/20210514_134941-scaled.jpg 1232w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\"\/><\/noscript><\/p>\n<p>Also consider Kolob Canyons. I\u2019ve been seeing this spot recommended a lot lately. While the hike is within Zion National Park, the entrance is on the totally opposite side. You just might experience this beautiful spot with far, far fewer crowds.\u00a0<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Where_to_Stay_in_Zion_National_Park\"\/>Where to Stay in Zion National Park<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"\/><\/h2>\n<p>Figuring out where to stay near Zion can be a challenge. There are a number of hotels in nearby Springdale that would be suitable, but these are likely to book up fast. If you plan in advance, booking one of the hotels near Zion National Park may be your best bet. If you choose one near to one of the Springdale shuttle stops, you won\u2019t have to worry about parking! Plus, after a hot day in the sun, you can return to the comforts of your air conditioned lodging.<\/p>\n<p>One hotel to check out is the <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/fave.co\/3oPr4D3\">Cable Mountain Lodge<\/a>, located super close to the Zion NP Visitor\u2019s Center. What an ideal location!<\/p>\n<p>Many people prefer to camp in Zion or nearby. That is what we did this time on our trip, as we had rented a campervan for a short road trip out of Vegas. (Though I\u2019m starting to think hotels are more my thing\u2026..) Camping is a great, affordable option, but it can be tough to snag reservations at Zion during busy times.<\/p>\n<p>We camped for two nights at South Campground inside Zion National Park. The fact that we scored a site was nothing short of miraculous. South Campground sites become available to book 2 weeks in advance of the travel date. And when I say 2 weeks, I mean 2 weeks on the DOT. I was able to get our site by being online at <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.recreation.gov\/camping\/campgrounds\/272266?start=60\">Reservation.gov<\/a> just before 10am EST on the day bookings were opening. I was logged into my Reservation.gov account, had pre-selected my desired site that morning, and had it in my cart ready to go. Exactly at 10am, I clicked on the button to book. And boom, it was ours.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>As I said, these are very difficult to get, but if you follow the above procedure, you just might get lucky.<\/p>\n<p>The other campground near the front of Zion is <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.recreation.gov\/camping\/campgrounds\/232445?tab=info\">Watchman Campground, which books out 6 months in advance.<\/a><\/p>\n<p>While the campgrounds were lovely, offering views like this:<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-large wp-image-21311 aligncenter\" alt=\"The view from across the street of a large rock formation with green trees in front of it. \" width=\"768\" height=\"1024\" srcset=\"https:\/\/twodrifters.us\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/20210515_074251-768x1024.jpg 768w, https:\/\/twodrifters.us\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/20210515_074251-225x300.jpg 225w, https:\/\/twodrifters.us\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/20210515_074251-1152x1536.jpg 1152w, https:\/\/twodrifters.us\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/20210515_074251-1536x2048.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/twodrifters.us\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/20210515_074251-640x853.jpg 640w, https:\/\/twodrifters.us\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/20210515_074251-150x200.jpg 150w, https:\/\/twodrifters.us\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/20210515_074251-scaled.jpg 924w\" data-lazy-sizes=\"(max-width: 768px) 100vw, 768px\" src=\"https:\/\/twodrifters.us\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/20210515_074251-768x1024.jpg\"\/><\/p>\n<p><noscript><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-large wp-image-21311 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/twodrifters.us\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/20210515_074251-768x1024.jpg\" alt=\"The view from across the street of a large rock formation with green trees in front of it. \" width=\"768\" height=\"1024\" srcset=\"https:\/\/twodrifters.us\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/20210515_074251-768x1024.jpg 768w, https:\/\/twodrifters.us\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/20210515_074251-225x300.jpg 225w, https:\/\/twodrifters.us\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/20210515_074251-1152x1536.jpg 1152w, https:\/\/twodrifters.us\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/20210515_074251-1536x2048.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/twodrifters.us\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/20210515_074251-640x853.jpg 640w, https:\/\/twodrifters.us\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/20210515_074251-150x200.jpg 150w, https:\/\/twodrifters.us\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/20210515_074251-scaled.jpg 924w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 768px) 100vw, 768px\"\/><\/noscript><\/p>\n<p>You should know there are no showers at the Zion Campgrounds.\u00a0 While this is somewhat inconvenient, you CAN get a paid shower in a very nice facility at Zion Outfitter. This is just outside of the park and you can walk from your campground through the pedestrian exit to get to Zion Outfitter. They offer hot showers for $4 (5 minutes) and they also have laundry facilities underneath the store.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Pro tip:<\/strong> Don\u2019t forget your park pass or receipt when exiting, as you\u2019ll need to show it to get back in!\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Also, another pro tip: the<a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.nps.gov\/planyourvisit\/passes.htm\"> America the Beautiful Pass<\/a> is totally worth it. $80 for one year gets you access to all the National Parks and a total of more than 2,000 federal recreation sites. If you\u2019re visiting more than 2 parks on your trip (such as nearby Bryce Canyon and the Grand Canyon) then you\u2019ll definitely save money with this pass.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-large wp-image-21299\" alt=\"Small river flowing through the bottom of a rock canyon with green trees on either side of it. \" width=\"1024\" height=\"711\" srcset=\"https:\/\/twodrifters.us\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/20210515_211545-1024x711.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/twodrifters.us\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/20210515_211545-300x208.jpg 300w, https:\/\/twodrifters.us\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/20210515_211545-768x533.jpg 768w, https:\/\/twodrifters.us\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/20210515_211545-1536x1066.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/twodrifters.us\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/20210515_211545-2048x1421.jpg 2048w, https:\/\/twodrifters.us\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/20210515_211545-150x104.jpg 150w, https:\/\/twodrifters.us\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/20210515_211545-scaled.jpg 1331w\" data-lazy-sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" src=\"https:\/\/twodrifters.us\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/20210515_211545-1024x711.jpg\"\/><\/p>\n<p><noscript><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-large wp-image-21299\" src=\"https:\/\/twodrifters.us\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/20210515_211545-1024x711.jpg\" alt=\"Small river flowing through the bottom of a rock canyon with green trees on either side of it. \" width=\"1024\" height=\"711\" srcset=\"https:\/\/twodrifters.us\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/20210515_211545-1024x711.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/twodrifters.us\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/20210515_211545-300x208.jpg 300w, https:\/\/twodrifters.us\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/20210515_211545-768x533.jpg 768w, https:\/\/twodrifters.us\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/20210515_211545-1536x1066.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/twodrifters.us\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/20210515_211545-2048x1421.jpg 2048w, https:\/\/twodrifters.us\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/20210515_211545-150x104.jpg 150w, https:\/\/twodrifters.us\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/20210515_211545-scaled.jpg 1331w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\"\/><\/noscript><\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-large wp-image-21297 aligncenter\" alt=\"A couple sits on a perch by the round with tall rocky mountains behind them.\" width=\"758\" height=\"1024\" srcset=\"https:\/\/twodrifters.us\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/20210514_111812-758x1024.jpg 758w, https:\/\/twodrifters.us\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/20210514_111812-222x300.jpg 222w, https:\/\/twodrifters.us\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/20210514_111812-768x1038.jpg 768w, https:\/\/twodrifters.us\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/20210514_111812-1137x1536.jpg 1137w, https:\/\/twodrifters.us\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/20210514_111812-1516x2048.jpg 1516w, https:\/\/twodrifters.us\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/20210514_111812-150x203.jpg 150w, https:\/\/twodrifters.us\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/20210514_111812-scaled.jpg 924w\" data-lazy-sizes=\"(max-width: 758px) 100vw, 758px\" src=\"https:\/\/twodrifters.us\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/20210514_111812-758x1024.jpg\"\/><\/p>\n<p><noscript><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-large wp-image-21297 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/twodrifters.us\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/20210514_111812-758x1024.jpg\" alt=\"A couple sits on a perch by the round with tall rocky mountains behind them.\" width=\"758\" height=\"1024\" srcset=\"https:\/\/twodrifters.us\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/20210514_111812-758x1024.jpg 758w, https:\/\/twodrifters.us\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/20210514_111812-222x300.jpg 222w, https:\/\/twodrifters.us\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/20210514_111812-768x1038.jpg 768w, https:\/\/twodrifters.us\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/20210514_111812-1137x1536.jpg 1137w, https:\/\/twodrifters.us\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/20210514_111812-1516x2048.jpg 1516w, https:\/\/twodrifters.us\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/20210514_111812-150x203.jpg 150w, https:\/\/twodrifters.us\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/20210514_111812-scaled.jpg 924w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 758px) 100vw, 758px\"\/><\/noscript><\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Zion_National_Park_Itinerary_2_Days\"\/>Zion National Park Itinerary: 2 Days<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"\/><\/h2>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Day_1_in_Zion\"\/>Day 1 in Zion<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"\/><\/h3>\n<p>This is day one of your Zion itinerary, or even better yet, the evening before the first official day.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Arrive, get situated\/checked in to your accommodation<\/li>\n<li>Head to the park.

Here\u2019s another great guide all about this hike, so if you want to read more in depth about The Narrows hike, <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/jameskaiser.com\/zion\/hiking\/narrows-bottom-up\/\">click here<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>Hiking The Narrows from the bottom up is what most people choose to do. There is an alternate option to hike from the top down, but that\u2019s a long hike for someone in better shape than I. If you\u2019re in moderate-decent shape, you\u2019ll be just fine with The Narrows bottom up, by the way. But keep in mind that it is challenging. You\u2019ll be walking much of the time right in the water (The Narrows is essentially right inside the Virgin River), with occasional spots thigh or even chest deep. When we went, May 2021, there was a thigh-deep portion of the hike about 15-20 minutes in. At that point, getting very wet is not optional.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-large wp-image-21296 aligncenter\" alt=\"Hikers walking along the rocky shore of a canyon floor with a small river to the right. \" width=\"768\" height=\"1024\" srcset=\"https:\/\/twodrifters.us\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/20210515_092217-768x1024.jpg 768w, https:\/\/twodrifters.us\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/20210515_092217-225x300.jpg 225w, https:\/\/twodrifters.us\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/20210515_092217-1152x1536.jpg 1152w, https:\/\/twodrifters.us\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/20210515_092217-1536x2048.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/twodrifters.us\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/20210515_092217-640x853.jpg 640w, https:\/\/twodrifters.us\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/20210515_092217-150x200.jpg 150w, https:\/\/twodrifters.us\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/20210515_092217-scaled.jpg 924w\" data-lazy-sizes=\"(max-width: 768px) 100vw, 768px\" src=\"https:\/\/twodrifters.us\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/20210515_092217-768x1024.jpg\"\/><\/p>\n<p><noscript><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-large wp-image-21296 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/twodrifters.us\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/20210515_092217-768x1024.jpg\" alt=\"Hikers walking along the rocky shore of a canyon floor with a small river to the right. \" width=\"768\" height=\"1024\" srcset=\"https:\/\/twodrifters.us\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/20210515_092217-768x1024.jpg 768w, https:\/\/twodrifters.us\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/20210515_092217-225x300.jpg 225w, https:\/\/twodrifters.us\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/20210515_092217-1152x1536.jpg 1152w, https:\/\/twodrifters.us\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/20210515_092217-1536x2048.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/twodrifters.us\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/20210515_092217-640x853.jpg 640w, https:\/\/twodrifters.us\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/20210515_092217-150x200.jpg 150w, https:\/\/twodrifters.us\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/20210515_092217-scaled.jpg 924w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 768px) 100vw, 768px\"\/><\/noscript><\/p>\n<p>So how do you manage hiking in a moving river? Rent some gear! While many people will tell you that Narrows gear is unnecessary, we found it to be very useful for us. We rented gear from Zion Outfitter (located directly outside the park and right next to the pedestrian\/bike entrance). Our summer gear included <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/zionoutfitter.com\/product\/warm-weather-package-copy-3\/\">the water-friendly boots, neoprene socks, and a sturdy walking stick<\/a>, for about $30 a person.<\/p>\n<p>Could you hike in your own shoes? Probably. But they are going to get sopping wet. Even our rented \u201cwaterproof\u201d boots got filled with water. But the real benefit of those shoes is the neoprene socks (so you\u2019re not dealing with wet cotton socks, ew) and non-slip soles. The shoes were supportive, easy to walk in, and I think prevented us from slipping more than we did.<\/p>\n<p>And that stick that comes with the gear? Also really essential. On the way out to the hike, I wondered why I was toting this heavy wooden stick. It turned out to be an integral part of keeping myself steady and upright amidst the rocky bottom of The Narrows. This item is a must-have, in my opinion. Don\u2019t hike The Narrows without it.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-large wp-image-21295 aligncenter\" alt=\"People walking along the bottom of a canyon floor that is mostly underwater. \" width=\"768\" height=\"1024\" srcset=\"https:\/\/twodrifters.us\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/20210515_091902-768x1024.jpg 768w, https:\/\/twodrifters.us\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/20210515_091902-225x300.jpg 225w, https:\/\/twodrifters.us\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/20210515_091902-1152x1536.jpg 1152w, https:\/\/twodrifters.us\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/20210515_091902-1536x2048.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/twodrifters.us\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/20210515_091902-640x853.jpg 640w, https:\/\/twodrifters.us\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/20210515_091902-150x200.jpg 150w, https:\/\/twodrifters.us\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/20210515_091902-scaled.jpg 924w\" data-lazy-sizes=\"(max-width: 768px) 100vw, 768px\" src=\"https:\/\/twodrifters.us\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/20210515_091902-768x1024.jpg\"\/><\/p>\n<p><noscript><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-large wp-image-21295 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/twodrifters.us\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/20210515_091902-768x1024.jpg\" alt=\"People walking along the bottom of a canyon floor that is mostly underwater. \" width=\"768\" height=\"1024\" srcset=\"https:\/\/twodrifters.us\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/20210515_091902-768x1024.jpg 768w, https:\/\/twodrifters.us\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/20210515_091902-225x300.jpg 225w, https:\/\/twodrifters.us\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/20210515_091902-1152x1536.jpg 1152w, https:\/\/twodrifters.us\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/20210515_091902-1536x2048.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/twodrifters.us\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/20210515_091902-640x853.jpg 640w, https:\/\/twodrifters.us\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/20210515_091902-150x200.jpg 150w, https:\/\/twodrifters.us\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/20210515_091902-scaled.jpg 924w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 768px) 100vw, 768px\"\/><\/noscript><\/p>\n<p>Currently (summer 2021), the Virgin River, and thus the Narrows, is experiencing an issue with a toxic cyanobacteria bloom. This sounds pretty scary, but the evidence shows that this has not deterred hundreds of hikers (us included) from attempting The Narrows. Please read the park\u2019s official information for the most accurate, up-to-date details about the bacteria. It would seem the risk is minimal and the biggest concern is not ingesting the water. Yet you have to make your own decision about whether to go. In the words of the Parks: \u201cyour safety is your responsibility!\u201d<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Day_3_in_Zion_if_Applicable\"\/>Day 3 in Zion, if Applicable<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"\/><\/h3>\n<p>Now you\u2019ve had two super fun, but not-too-crazy days in Zion National Park. If you have more time to spend here, that is awesome! I think you could spend a week in Zion and have an incredible trip experiencing nearly everything the park has to offer.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>But what if you have just one more day, or even just a morning in Zion? I recommend doing some kind of sunrise hike. Canyon Overlook is a fairly short trail (and is accessible from the Zion-Mt. Carmel Road, so you don\u2019t need shuttle passes). This makes for a lovely sunrise spot. But other hikes would also be a good option in the morning. You can\u2019t go wrong with those beautiful red rocks all around.\u00a0<\/p>\n<hr\/>\n<p><strong>You might also like:<\/strong><\/p>\n<hr\/>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<div class=\"saboxplugin-wrap\" itemtype=\"http:\/\/schema.org\/Person\" itemscope=\"\" itemprop=\"author\">\n<div class=\"saboxplugin-tab\">\n<div class=\"saboxplugin-gravatar\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"100\" height=\"100\" alt=\"\" itemprop=\"image\" src=\"https:\/\/twodrifters.us\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/09\/amyface.jpg\"\/><noscript><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/twodrifters.us\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/09\/amyface.jpg\" width=\"100\" height=\"100\" alt=\"\" itemprop=\"image\"\/><\/noscript><\/div>\n<div class=\"saboxplugin-desc\">\n<div itemprop=\"description\">\n<p>Amy Hartle is the co-founder and owner of <em>Two Drifters<\/em>, where she blogs about romantic and couples travel, relationships, honeymoons, and more.
