Trip Highlights

Angels Landing is one of the most iconic and exhilarating hikes in the national park system. Starting from Zion Canyon, we ascend nearly 1,500 feet via a series of steep switchbacks before navigating a narrow rock fin with sheer drop-offs on both sides. Our reward is a dramatic summit with panoramic views of Zion’s towering cliffs and deep canyons—an unforgettable place to pause for lunch. Due to the exposed nature of the final stretch, this hike is only suitable for those confident with heights and is not offered from November through mid-March due to hazardous ice.

Is This Trip Right For me?

This hike has extreme exposure with long drop-offs, and is a strenuous climb. It is not for young children or anyone fearful of heights. A portion of the hike is paved, but the last section runs along the spine of a steep, narrow ridge to the summit with drop-offs on both sides. There are chains that hikers can grab onto on some of the very exposed sections. Unfortunately, people fall to their deaths occasionally from Angels Landing, so be sure you’re physically and mentally prepared for this hike. If you are, you’ll have an amazing time!

True 5 star experience

Booked sorta last minute (felt like it) for Angels Landing in Zion due to the permit lottery. Knew that Wildland Trekking was well known and had a great reputation. Was not expecting this to be a true 5 star experience. Outstanding communication, outstanding value, amazing guide (Thank you Taylor!). Will totally be looking at Wildland for future excursions.
