Best time to visit Zion National Park

April, May, September, and October offer the most comfortable weather for RV travel, with mild daytime temperatures and cooler nights ideal for canyon hiking. Summer brings highs frequently above 100 F along with afternoon monsoon thunderstorms that can trigger flash floods in slot canyons like The Narrows. Winter is quieter with occasional snow and icy trails, but campgrounds and the shuttle-free scenic drive stay accessible to self-contained rigs. Spring and fall shoulder seasons also mean easier campground reservations and less shuttle wait time.

Things to do at Zion National Park

  • Zion Canyon Scenic Drive and Shuttle Easy
    RV parking available

    The Zion Canyon Scenic Drive is the main 6-mile route into the heart of the canyon, served by a free shuttle during peak months. RVers park at the Zion Canyon Visitor Center large-vehicle lot and board the shuttle to access trailheads. In winter, the road reopens to private vehicles.

  • Riverside Walk to The Narrows Easy
    RV parking available

    Riverside Walk is a paved 2.2-mile round-trip path that follows the Virgin River to the entrance of The Narrows slot canyon. The trail is stroller and wheelchair friendly, and the turnaround point is the start of the iconic wade-through-the-river hike. Check flash flood forecasts before entering the river.

  • Angels Landing Strenuous
    RV parking available

    Angels Landing is a strenuous 5.4-mile round-trip hike climbing 1,500 feet to a narrow fin with 1,000-foot drop-offs secured by chains. A permit obtained through a seasonal lottery is required to hike past Scout Lookout. Not recommended for anyone uncomfortable with heights. nps.gov/zion/planyourvisit/permitsandreservations.htm

  • Emerald Pools Trails Easy
    RV parking available

    The Emerald Pools network offers a tiered set of hikes from an easy 1.2-mile round-trip to the Lower Pool to a moderate 3-mile loop reaching the Upper Pool. Expect seasonal waterfalls and hanging gardens along the sandstone cliffs. Start at the Zion Lodge shuttle stop.

  • Canyon Overlook Trail Moderate

    Canyon Overlook is a 1-mile round-trip trail on the east side of the Zion-Mt. Carmel Tunnel ending at a dramatic viewpoint over lower Zion Canyon. The small trailhead lot has very limited space and is not suitable for larger RVs. The highway corridor is subject to new size limits taking effect in mid-2026.

  • Watchman Trail Moderate
    RV parking available

    The Watchman Trail is a 3.3-mile round-trip hike starting near the Zion Canyon Visitor Center that climbs to a mesa with views of Springdale and the West Temple. It is one of the few major Zion hikes accessible without the shuttle. Parking is available at the visitor center.

  • Pa'rus Trail Easy
    RV parking available

    Pa'rus is a paved 3.5-mile round-trip multi-use path running along the Virgin River from the South Campground to Canyon Junction. It is open to bikes, pets on leash, and wheelchairs, making it the most accessible trail in the park. The route connects directly to both in-park campgrounds.

  • Kolob Canyons Easy
    RV parking available

    Kolob Canyons is a quieter section of Zion accessed from exit 40 off I-15, about 40 miles northwest of the main canyon. A 5-mile scenic drive leads to viewpoints of finger canyons and trailheads including Timber Creek Overlook and Taylor Creek. The visitor center parking area accommodates RVs.

Wonderful experience! Shaunna was great to work with! Prompt communication. She delivered and set-up, and was flexible with our arrival and departure times. Had an amazing time at Zion!

Loved our experience with Sandy from start to finish. He communicated very well, including letting us know about the need to reserve a campsite ahead of time. The camper was very well stocked with kitchen items. The beds were soft and well prepared. They met us when we arrived to set up the RV and explain everything. The weather was very cold and so the water froze one morning. Sandy came right over within minutes and helped us get it going again. Very nice people and very honest. There were extra things we had ordered that we didn’t need so he offered to takeoff those charges. We would absolutely come back and use them again. We were a family with small children and they even agreed that it felt like home. Thank you for a great experience!

Catherine R. - Jan 2026

Sandy's bunkhouse RV trailer was amazing and had pretty much all the amenities we needed! Sandy was super communicative and helpful throughout the entire process. The delivery/pickup was smooth and easy, would definitely recommend to anyone!

How to get to Zion National Park

The South Entrance in Springdale is about 45 minutes (40 miles) from St. George, Utah, roughly 2.5 hours (160 miles) from Las Vegas, and about 4.5 hours (310 miles) from Salt Lake City via I-15 and State Route 9. Beginning June 7, 2026, vehicles larger than 35 feet, 9 inches in length; 7 feet, 10 inches in width; 11 feet, 4 inches in height; or 50,000 pounds will no longer be permitted to drive the Zion-Mt. Carmel Highway between Canyon Junction and the park's East Entrance, and combined vehicles such as trucks with trailers cannot exceed 26 feet from hitch to rear axle and 50 feet overall. Alternate routes around the park that provide access to Bryce Canyon, the North Rim of Grand Canyon, and other Grand Circle destinations add between 10 to 45 minutes of drive time. Harry Reid International Airport in Las Vegas and St. George Regional Airport are the nearest major fly-and-rent options.
