Angels Landing Private Day Hike
Day Hike Tours
4-6 Hours 5MI / 8KMTrip 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.

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!

Kaci was an amazing guide! She communicated before our trip and was able to adjust our start time to beat the crowds at Zion. Our trip up Angels Landing was safe and smooth. I had done this hike before, but this was my son's first time. Having Kaci there made the trip enjoyable because she provided expert advice, shared interesting geological facts, and generally eased any anxiety I had about bringing my son on this hike. My son had a great time and was inspired by Kaci to continue hiking and exploring the outdoors. 10/10!

I just wanted to leave a review for my assigned guide Kacie. She was absolutely amazing. She went an extra mile to celebrate my birthday and I am so grateful for that. Her hiking and guiding experience is phenomenal. She was one an absolute delight to be with and secondly so knowledgeable. She kept the pace that worked for us, she taught us so many tips regarding hiking and gave tons of knowledge on the Zion national park. I am definitely going to book with you guys again and will ask her availability. She is super understanding and have a depth of knowledge. It was the best guided trip we have ever had.
