What To Expect

Zion National Park

If you want to pick one spectacular park to visit, it’s tough to find anything better than Zion. This park can tend to get crowded, so we try to take off early if the group wants to hike the ever popular Angel’s Landing. Our goal will be to get there as early as possible to either hike Angel’s Landing (exposure and elevation) or the Emerald Pools loop (no exposure, less elevation). After a lunch and rest at the Zion Lodge, we will continue to work our way up the valley, culminating in a hike of The Narrows at the top of the valley. Should the Narrows not be open due to flooding or expected rain, the group has numerous options across the East and West portions of the park, including roads going through giant holes in the mountain and overlooks of Zion from above the canyon. Heading home, we can grab a quick bite to eat in St. George, any may even be treated to the Milky Way if there is no moon and no clouds between St. George and Las Vegas.

Angel's Landing

Guests will be able to select from two hikes to start the day, the first of which is Angel's Landing. This is NOT for the feint of heart, as it involves elevation, exposure, and hiking up a narrow rock ridge with a chainlink guide. However, for the adventurous, the payoff are 360 degree panoramic views of the entire canyon as it fills with the first light of the day.

Emerald Pools

If Angel's Landing seems like a bit much, Emerald Pools will be more your speed. Minimal elevation gain and no exposure allows us to travel along the canyon wall edge, eventually coming to the Emerald Pools. These pools show how the water flows from the canyons walls through smaller streams and into the Virgin River, which ultimately carved Zion canyon.

Zion National Park

After the morning hike, we will use the Zion bus transport to visit numerous sits through the canyon including Three Sisters, Weeping Rock, and numerous other easily accessible stops.

The Narrows

The world famous Narrows starts at the top of Zion canyon at the Temple of Sinawava. Here, the canyon narrows and hikers only option is to hike IN the Virgin River. Hikers can go for 10+ miles upstream and even camp on riverbeds. We will either do a deeper hike into the Narrows, or a shorter one if the group wants to hike to Observation Point for sunset.

Observation Point

While the group may want to take more time in the Narrows, those who want to fit in one more hike can visit Observation Point. We can either hike 2.5 miles and 2,500 feet up (5 miles roundtrip) or drive to the east side of the park and hike 3.5 miles (7 miles roundtrip) with minimal elevation gain. The payoff is a view from the very top and back of the canyon, with entire canyon in front of you as it fills with the last light of sunset. The group must be comfortable hiking back in the dark, using headlamps provided by ECA.

This was just an incredible experience. My wife and I visited Zion with Elite Custom Adventures, and we’re so glad that we did. While it’s a premium product, they really go above and beyond to deliver. Prior to the trip, we made a custom itinerary and did a pre-trip preparation session with Ryan over Zoom that left us feeling fully prepared for the adventure. When the day came, all we needed were the proper clothes and shoes, and ECA took care of the rest. Ryan made sure we had shuttle tickets as soon as the park opened, and we started the day with the Emerald Pools hike. The mid-day was spent visiting the more popular sites, including The Narrows and, while my wife wasn’t as interested in Angel’s Landing, we were able to compromise and hike to Zion’s Observation Point. We took in an amazing sunset from above the canyon and hiked back with headlamps (all provided by Ryan!). It was nice to have the flexibility to make changes on the fly, and we couldn’t imagine doing or seeing more in a day without this service. While the adventure itself was amazing, what really sets Elite Custom Adventures apart is THE PHOTOGRAPHY! In less than a week we received over 50 digital photos from our experience and these simply couldn’t be duplicated on an iPhone. It is clear ECA cares about this part of their experience. We are so happy that we’ll have these memories forever, not just in our mind, but on our computer backgrounds, on pictures hanging on the walls throughout the house and for holiday cards to come! Thanks ECA!

My kids and I love to hike but we had never been on a trip like this, Zion was beyond beautiful!! We got there in time for the sunrise and had a beautiful day to explore. My kids are 12 and 6, they absolutely enjoyed every minute. It will definitely always be one of our best memories. Ryan was not only friendly but he listened to what we wanted to see or do. He was also flexible with our trip, being that my son is 6, he let us explore and take our time. We will definitely be booking a trip in the future. Not only was the trip awesome but the photos he took were breathtaking. We will cherish them forever! You wouldn't be disappointed booking a trip😉

Such a great time, and the kiddos did a great job on the trails. Really appreciate you trusting us to bring your family into the outdoors, and I hope the pictures are something that you treasure for years to come.

One of the best National parks in the US. ECA took the stress out of traveling and made this experience even better! Love all the options provided and highly recommend using Custom Adventures to get away!
