Beyond the Boundaries of Zion National Park

Beyond the Boundaries of Zion National Park

Zion's visitor numbers have increased by 40% over the past five years and while I do not begrudge the multitudes from coming to appreciate the beauty and adventure Zion offers, I have sought alternative places to enjoy my beloved Zion. I have found, the beauty of Zion is not contained inside the boundaries of the park. Southern Utah abounds in stunning landscapes and incredible geology. Just beyond the outskirts of the park, there are refreshing waterways with impressive waterfalls and way fewer people. All one has to do is follow the road less traveled!
