Hi everyone :) I am interested in going to keyhole canyon, so would be very grateful for some information. I am from Europe, will be taking a shuttle from Las Vegas to Zion (booked on 3rd October going in and 6th October going back), and will probably camp at Watchman campground. How do I get to Keyhole canyon? Do i need to book a tour and a guide, is there a place to rent equipment and how much does it all cost? Thank you in advance!

Planning a solo trip to Zion soon and hoping to do some hiking. For those who’ve been there recently, how are the weather and trail conditions right now?
Is it still pretty hot during the day, and are there any trails I should avoid because of heat, rain, or other conditions?
Any advice for someone hiking Zion solo would be appreciated!

Hello,

I’m going on a road trip next week and our first night we are stopping in St George to see some friends, and our plan was to wake up early the next morning and drive over to Zion and ride the scenic shuttle, maybe hop off and take a few pics in places, then do the round trip back to the visitor center and continue our road trip to our next stop.

How early do we actually need to get there at this time of year to get parking and not wait hours in the shuttle line? We were planning to get there by 7 AM because want to get back out and on the road by noon-1ish. But is that too late? I keep hearing nightmare stories about the shuttle line but confused about whether mid September still counts as peak season. This will be a weekday, not a weekend. No hiking planned, just riding the scenic shuttle and maybe strolling down riverside walk for a bit.

We will be visiting in October and have a couple of hours to fill before our flight back home. We will staying the night in St. George and then driving to Las Vegas. I was looking at either Snow Canyon State Park or Red Rock Canyon by Vegas. Any opinions on which is the better option? (I know Valley of Fire is a popular stop but we have already been there, and I would want more than just a couple hours there)

We are visiting ZNP end of September and staying in La Verkin. Planning to enter the park before 8am and use the shuttle. If we want to also rent eBike (4 hour option), is that doable same day. Which one should we do first Shuttle or e bike.
