Zion National Park, located in southern Utah, boasts dramatic red rock formations, towering cliffs, and some of the most famous hikes in the US (Angels Landing and The Narrows)

You need a permit to hike Angels Landing and the Narrows from the Top to Bottom. You can do Bottom > Up without one, but The Narrows are open depending on the river flow, so check the parks' website before visiting. Other beautiful hikes you can do are Emerald Pools and Canyon Overlook Trail. Arrive as early as possible because parking is VERY limited!

Entrance fee: $35.00 per private vehicle, valid for a week.

Tip: Zion Pizza & Noodle Co is perfect for dinner after all that hiking!
