    Hiking the Narrows at Zion

    I did a lot of research before our trip to Zion to figure out the right e-bike place and how to do the Narrows. Just me and an 11 year old going to a place with no reception on e-bikes and a 6 mile hike through a canyon had me a little nervous. After talking to this company on the phone, I felt confident this was the right place. We did the e-bike and bib Narrows package. We tried on the bibs and footwear the night before so we didn't waste time in the morning. It was easy, mostly comfortable, and they took us through the process on how to get to the narrows. My ONLY advice is to NOT do the e-bikes the same day as the narrows. Take the shuttle. You will be EXHAUSTED and the winds are harsh as you bike through. Save the e-bike ride for a different day where you can ride through more casually. We were SO tired when we needed to return. The bibs and narrows hike went well. It is VERY difficult and 6 hours for the shorter version, but worked out well for us. **When I saw other e-bikes from other companies, I would not have wanted to take those. Just fyi... the e-bikes are VERY different from company to company. Ours were pretty new, the charge lasted all day, baskets were handy to story our gear, and a spot for walking sticks. YOU MUST TAKE A WALKING STICK to the Narrows. You will 100% slip and fall and get super freezing wet without one. We saw MANY people fall in the Narrows!

    It a five star tour was everything we were hoping to experience. The guide Brittany, was great!. Our group of 4 would recommend and do this tour again. ( now that we know we're to meet) A star was taken away because the directions given, sent us into Bryce Canyon 70 miles away. After several phone calls and rerouting we finally arrived at meeting place and a $50.00 charge for changing arrival time was added to our tour cost.

    We are SO glad we went on our adventure to the Narrows in late April for our spring break. This was our family's first trip to Zion (my wife and me, plus our two boys ages 6 and 11). We did some hikes on our first day and then did the Narrows with Zion Adventures for our second day (starting as early as we could, arriving at the location at 7:30 AM). We are so glad we did this, and we are so glad we did it not just with the gear, but with the great team at Zion Adventures for a guided hike. This made it so much easier, safer and more enjoyable for our family: we were in great care from door to door with Jess and Forrest. They helped us with our little six year old as he needed some help with his footing in the river, they showed us the best and safest paths through the canyon, and they were very patient with us and good humored. We couldn't have been in better hands - we are so thankful to them and the team at Zion Adventures! In the words of our 11 year old: "When we first began, we were right in the rental store, and our two guides helped us put on our waterproof equipment, which was simply required for us to wear. When we got started for real, we were on a bit of a long walk, where our two lovely guides showed us the history and scientific properties of what was around us. By the time we reached our first destination, we felt refreshed and ready to begin, and felt this would be a breeze. We were a little off. There were plenty of slippery rocks and both slow and quicker moving water, and multiple areas where the water was ~4 ft deep (which I loved to float in!). Without our guides, it would've been much more difficult for us! Forrest already told us that it was ok if we wished to turn back, which only encouraged us to push on. Our guides really got us out of a pickle, too. Without them, my 6-year old brother would've turned back and took a nap for the rest of the day. They also patiently guided us onward as we sought our victory. The Narrows were quite the challenge, but our guides saved our necks." Thank you Zion Adventures, Forrest and Jess!

    Renting eBikes during one of our days in Zion National Park was THE BEST THING EVER - thanks to Zion Adventure. We rode over 30 miles and really experienced the beauty of the park in a unique way. And because we didn't have to wait on the shuttle, we were able to explore 5 trails in one day - including Scouts Lookout and Angel's Landing. The bikes also allowed us the ease of getting in and out of the park for meals - breakfast at Cafe Soleil, lunch at Camp Outpost, and post hiking beers at Zion Canyon Brewpub. The team at Zion Adventure was super helpful, and available when we needed them. We actually had to cancel our original dates due to COVID, and they honored our reservation. Service was top quality. The equipment was in great condition too. When we go back, Zion Adventure will be our #1 choice for bike rentals.

    I just wanted to take a moment to shout out Rick and his amazing team for taking such great care of us! From the moment we arrived, to the gear fitting, to sending us off on our way to The Narrows, they were all so incredibly kind and caring and patient with our group of 9. We were excited to experience The Narrows and they made it so much better by showing us what we needed for the trek. They explained everything so well with a poster map and thoroughly so we would know exactly what to expect, and honestly they were all genuinely excited for us to see The Narrows, as much as we were! We spent a good 6hrs at The Narrows and I seriously could not imagine doing it without their gear. The socks/shoes were so comfortable and helpful when navigating the slippery rocks and current. The walking stick was a must - I would have fallen many times had I not had the stick to stabilize myself against the current. We used their backpacks to store our water bottles and their dry bags to keep our sandwiches, cellphones and key fobs dry. The store is well organized, clean, and a cool respite from the 104 degree heat. They also have items you can buy that you may have forgotten for your trip. Anyways, this company is the real deal and what the world needs more of. They have a passion for people and a vision for helping others have the best experience at Zion and it shows. They are best in class so don't even think about going anywhere but here for your Zion experience!!! You can thank me later, haha! Ps. I also want to shout out the lady on the phone (Faye?) who also took the time to run down everything with me the night before. She was awesome!

    Hubby wanted to hike The Narrows for his bday again. Last year, we started late and with the shoes I wore, my ankles were pretty tired halfway through. I have weak ankles from years of sports. This year we decided to get the right gear so we could make it all the way to Big Springs. I did a quick Yelp search and found Zion Adventure Company. It was right across the street from where we were staying and they had decent prices and great reviews. We headed over there to get our gear the night before so we can start early the next morning. As soon as we walked in, a very friendly employee started talking to us to find out what we needed. She was actually one of the guides that did the canyoneering but she still took the time to walk us through the process of renting our gear. She was very nice!! It didn't take us long to get our gear fitted and check out. We got the boots, socks, walking stick package. It was only $29 each. We opted not to take the walking stick cause we had brought our own trekking poles. We were in and out of the store in 20 minutes. They had maps with distinguishing landmarks so you could see how far into The Narrows you actually get. I took some pics, which really helped us during our hike. The next morning we took off for our hike. Those shoes/boots were a game changer!! I felt so much more confident walking through the water over slippery rocks. We found that we were making great time compared to last year. Unfortunately because I felt so good in my amazing boots, I took some risks that this old lady should have not taken. I ended up getting my foot caught up and slipped (not the boots fault. totally my fault ) and I jacked up my ankle. Note earlier comment: weak ankles. The hike back from Big Springs took us a lot longer because of my injury and we barely made the last bus down the hill. When I say "barely", we literally got there at 814pm with 30 seconds to spare (according to my husband's watch). The last bus leaves at 815pm. We were the last ones in The Canyon. How embarrassing!! Anyway, the 815pm bus driver was very nice and friendly! Because we got back so late, Zion Adventure was closed already. We got up the next morning and returned the items. They were very nice about us bringing them back late. We will definitely use them again when we come back next year. Great location! Great staff! Great gear!! Great times!!

    Can you pick up rental gear for narrows the day before?

    Yes, I believe so! I would just double check and call to confirm inventory during the busy season. We came the day of for equipment but it was during winter season.

I still enjoyed it and had fun going to the beginning of the narrows before turning back (which lots of people do who don't want to get wet). It's not a long walk either, like a mile or so so you can do it fast. It starts at the temple of Sinawava, plenty of signs point the way towards it. Would rec the walk even if you aren't going to do the narrows itself, just for the vibes :)

The scenery changes frequently and there is a decent amount of shade. Any elevation change is barely noticeable. The not great parts - at the end of the trail begins "The Narrows". That spot of beach is WILDLY crowded. The folks returning from the Narrows use the Riverside Trail to come back to civilization, and can leave the trail wet and muddy. The trail itself is highly popular with people not doing the Narrows. So it's crowded. You'll have trouble overtaking slow folks and be slightly annoyed at loud groups wanting to pass your own slower than them self. Tips- do not wear boots. My feet were furious at me for doing this many steps in trail boots on hard concrete. Tennis shoes would have been so much better. Take your patience with you. Take a snack and plenty of water. Unless you're doing the Narrows or quite unsteady on your feet, you dont need poles.

It's only about 1 mile round trip and links you up to either Angel's Landing trail, Emerald Pools trail or the West Rim trail - so I wouldn't call this one an independent hike - you wouldn't be doing this one all on its own. It's more of a place for overflow parking for some of the main hikes with a small trail to get you to those actual trailheads. Bc of the parking issues for Angel's Landing, we had to park at the Grotto trailhead which is how we ended up on this trail. It's mostly flat, very well maintained, has a picnic area and nice restrooms. You get amazing views all along it, especially of Angel's Landing off in the distance! It's a great way to start the Angel's Landing hike tbh. We even saw deer!! And on our way out, some crazy clouds had rolled in and made the rock formations and mountains look so other-worldly and we even got snow as a bonus!! Definitely not disappointed we had to add some extra steps to our Angel's Landing hike! I got some great shots!

But there are a few trails that actually parallel the road, and can take you from shuttle stop to shuttle stop. So I say, if you can walk the canyon, why not? That's kind of the point is to be out there, right? The Grotto Trail is a great example. Connecting Shuttle Stop 5 (Zion Lodge) and Shuttle Stop 6 (The Grotto) this is a wonderful way to see a little of the canyon on foot. You can walk it in either direction, so take your pick. It doesn't much matter as elevation gains are minimal, but I like to get off of the shuttle at a farther stop and work my way back. Sometimes in the off season, however, you may be able to find parking at one of the stops and not the other, so if you're headed to the Grotto for a popular hike there, you may have to park at the Lodge and walk up. Perfect! Take this trail. You can also take the Emerald Pools and then Kayenta trails which parallel (sort of) the opposite side of the road, but that's a much longer haul. The Grotto Trail is only a half mile long. This trail isn't exactly quiet or private as it does parallel the road, but they report a surprising amount of wildlife here. I've not seen them when I hiked, but look for deer who are very unamused but mostly indifferent to humans. They are all over the park. I can't say it's my top destination hike when I plan a trip to Zion, but if you can squeeze it in or are forced to walk when Grotto parking is full, you won't be disappointed by a meandering walk along the canyon floor.

You'll be walking in dry creek beds and scrambling up dry, smooth waterfalls with chains of little pools (some really deep!) spilling down the mountains- and lots of rock scrambling up the mountains too- very similar to Angels Landing, but without the chains and maybe not quite as steep or dangerous for the most part. You start out going down the steep hill from the parking lot down into the Clear Creek bed and follow that until you get to the cool tunnel that takes you under highway 9. That's when you get into the Pine Creek bed that you'll pretty much follow the whole way. We definitely needed our poles and proper hiking boots. The rocks are smooth, slanted greatly in lots of places, and slick. This trail is definitely NOT for beginners - it's moderate in places and pretty strenuous in others. We made it up over 6000 feet as well! The trail isn't marked at all - very unclear - you'll really be dependent on a trail map - and it's not on the National Parks website or their maps! I think they like to keep it a secret lol. Luckily I had downloaded the trail map on the AllTrails app or we wouldn't never been able to do the whole trail. I highly recommend you do the same - and be sure to do it before you come into the park Bc we had ZERO signal most of the time. It's very much a hidden gem - we didn't see another soul and had the whole hike to ourselves! That being said, I would strongly recommend you don't hike this alone and bring bear spray and take all back country trail safety precautions. Parking is in a small lot not too long after the Mt Carmel tunnel (the big, main tunnel) and it'll be on your right. It has a tiny little building in it with a green roof which is the bathrooms yay!!

Then head all the way to the left, down the hill towards the woods. You'll be able to see a small trail in the sand headed down the hill around the left, almost seemingly under the road...that's it! The trail leads through the wooded area, through a tunnel (easy to navigate despite having ample water), and into a clearing where you being to hike up flat rocks, seeing the pools as you ascend to the top. We thought the pools were fascinating, as they had various shapes, depths, and the occasional waterfall. Would say this is a moderate hike, because of the incline, timing is based solely on how long you'd want to wander around each section- we also explored the river section opposite the trail if you go right from the parking lot down to the "beach area"
