Zion Canyon Visitor Center
Park
Open Details
You're going to spend a good chunk of the day at Zion National Park, one of the most beautiful places on earth. You have a wide variety of options here for day hikes. I highly recommend The Narrows, which is basically a creek stomp up the Virgin River. You could also hike the legendary Angel's Landing (not for those with a fear of heights), or the less crowded Observation Point. No matter what hike you decide to do, make sure you are equipped for it. Bring plenty of water. There are plenty of EV charging stations available in the parking lot of the Park.
