Zion's Park




Pictures from our recent vacation to Zion's National Park. June 7 to 14, 2013
 Zion National Park is located in the Southwestern United States, near Springdale, Utah and St. George, Utah. A prominent feature of the 229-square-mile park is Zion Canyon, which is 15 miles long and up to half a mile deep.



  Designated in 1919, Zion is Utah's oldest national park. The park is known for its incredible canyons and spectacular views. Famous hikes including The Narrows, Subway, and Angels Landing attract adventure enthusiasts from around the world. Hiking possibilities are endless. With nearly three million visitors per year, Zion is Utah's most heavily used park. Most park facilities are located in the Zion Canyon area, and it attracts the most visitors. There are four main sections in Zion National Park. Park Info and Map.






The rock formations and colors are beautiful.



Inside this sandstone mountain is the drive through tunnel






We drove through the tunnel. It was amazing! The Tunnel was completed in 1930. The tunnel is just over a mile long. It cuts through the sandstone mountain ending at a parking lot that leads to two popular trailheads.
