Zion National Park

View from Watchman Trail Zion National Park

Zion National Park is located in southwestern Utah about 2.5 hours from Las Vegas. In 2017 Zion National Park had 4.5 million visitors.  I tell you this so you know to be prepared for the crowds.  We visited Zion in early June on a Sunday and Monday. We found the park to be quite busy on the days of our visit. Click to continue reading about our visit to Zion National Park.

Southern Utah - Lodging

Lodging is one of the biggest expenses you will encounter when planning a vacation. As I planned our Southern Utah vacation I selected the places we wanted to visit and then began the search for lodging. We planned to visit Zion National Park and Bryce Canyon National Park.  If there was time, we would also try to make it to Grand Staircase and Cedar Breaks National Monument. Where would we stay?

Southern Utah!

During June of 2018 we spent 4 days in southern Utah. In that time we would visit two national parks and one national monument. Utah has five national parks and seven national monuments.  You will never be bored when visiting Utah!
