Details
How would you like to see and enjoy Zion without the crowds? If you answered yes, then the hike to Eagle Crags is for you. You won’t be in Zion Canyon, which is where the crowds will be. Instead, you’ll see it in the distance and see it like nobody in Zion Canyon can see it. Plus, you’ll see Zion Canyon’s little brother, Parunuweap. This remote canyon was formed by the East Fork of the Virgin River.
Eagle Crags is a moderate to strenuous hike at the base of Canaan Mountain with incredible views of several major peaks in Zion National Park. Your guide will point out these peaks to you along the hike. You’ll also see several points of interest not visible from other areas near Zion Canyon, as well as the abundant flora found along the trail.
