6Hike in the Paria Canyon
Avoid the crowds here in Kanab. This hike is a total of almost 15 miles out and back with an elevation gain of 846 feet. Want to save money on this fairly unknown canyon hike as well?
This is a great way to see Zion National Park’s Narrows, Antelope Canyon’s steep walls, or the oddly-patterned lines of the well-known Wave, and avoid spending $100.00 on a commercial hour-long tour. You can get all that in less-popular Paria Canyon for free. Enjoy camping?
Check out the relatively unpopulated campsite at the trailhead. It’s just five dollars per night. (Note: you’ll get your feet wet on this hike and there’s little shade. Plan accordingly.)
7Hike the Narrows
Some travel scribes say hiking the famous Narrows in Zion National Park in Springdale is “one of the most unique” adventures you may ever experience. It is under 10 miles out and back with an elevation of 330 feet. What may make it somewhat difficult for some is that much of the trail could be submerged by the Virgin River which makes it refreshing in the hot summer but possibly too cold in the fall. Still, the bottom of this slot canyon is highlighted with trees, waterfalls, natural springs, wildlife, and incredibly colorful sandstone walls. The Narrows is closed when the river is flowing at 150 CFS (Cubic Feet per Second) or more.
