Zion Canyon, with its sheer walls of red rock, hundreds of plunging waterfalls, and narrow slot canyons has been called a "Yosemite dressed in red." Neighboring Bryce Canyon, smaller but no less spectacular, is a fairytale amphitheater of rock formations and pink "hoodoos" (pinnacles), perhaps the most unusual display of erosion on earth. And to the south, the North Rim of the Grand Canyon boasts breathtaking vistas that go undiscovered by most visitors to this natural wonder. These gems of our national park system receive many visitors, but few of them ever hike the off-the-beaten-path trails. You will explore these trails with expert naturalist guides who will ensure you see the best the area has to offer, while comfortable lodges set in stunning remote locations are an oasis of comfort and tranquility after each day of exploring.
