Zion National Park, Utah, United States.
An extended video of my visit to the Zion National Park, Utah, United States.
I was really looking forward to seeing Zion NP and started filming miles short of the canyon itself. The Park set up is such that car parking is an issue so I parked several miles short of the entrance in Springdale to save the risk of hitting the Visitor Center and finding it full (in the summer no cars can enter the Scenic Drive which is the best part).
The Park provides a shuttle bus from Springdale and it worked out well for me so I can recommend it as an option (when I got to the Visitor Center the car park looked full but I didn't notice cars waiting).
The Park is simply stunning. I didn't have time to head much away from the main sites but there are quite a few hikes in the park and even walking a short distance away from one gives a whole new perspective on the park. The area around Zion Lodge is well worth a wander and the view from Weeping Rock is amazing (although time of day makes a big difference when you need the sun to be in the right spot to make the view extra special).
I ran out of time to drive the Zion-Mt Carmel highway so I plan to revisit and spend a bit more time exploring the park.

ZION | Scout Lookout (FULL HIKE IN HD)
*PLEASE HELP me to grow my Youtube channel by clicking the SUBSCRIBE button above or the link below. It only takes a second and it will really help me out. Thank you so much! I really appreciate it!
This video is the FULL HIKE at 2X speed from the trailhead to Scout Lookout.
*In my closing credits I accidentally labeled the hike Scouts Landing, however, it should be Scout Lookout.
Take a stroll through Zion Canyon in the heart of Zion National Park on a full hike from the trailhead to Scout Lookout. Scout Lookout is most famously known as the trail leading to the starting point for the famous Angel's Landing trail, however, the trail on its own offers spectacular views of the canyon below as you gain over 1000 feet in elevation, journey through a breathtaking canyon, and ascend the dizzying Walter's Wiggles (a long chain of tight switchbacks) to the summit which offers fantastic views of the canyon below, the Virgin River, as well as a great perspective of Angel's Landing. The trail is wide and paved. If you decide that the narrow trails, 1000 foot drops, and scrambling up the rocks of Angel's Landing isn't for you, you've still had an amazing hike up to Scout Lookout.
If you'd like to see my video of Angel's Landing I'll include a link here in a few days once its uploaded.
Most of my videos aren't in the full hike format like this video. If you enjoyed my video please check out my other videos.

Auto Tour of Zion National Park in Utah
Located in the American Southwest, two and a half hours east of Las Vegas, is one of Utah's most spectacular scenic wonders; Zion National Park. Zion National Park, the southern most of Utah's five Mighty national parks, is also the state's most-visited park with over 3.6 million visitors in 2015, making it the nation's 6th most-popular.
Fifteen miles long and up to a half-mile deep, Zion Canyon is the centerpiece of Zion National Park, a spectacular gorge cut through the Navajo sandstone by the Virgin River. Dramatic rock formations in ever-changing colors abound, from the steep-walled Narrows to the majestic and magisterial Court of the Patriarchs. Scenic drives feature countless vistas, but hiking the park’s many well-marked trails is the best way to experience this beautiful park’s hidden canyons and meet its diverse wildlife.
Entering Zion Canyon is a journey into the distant past, surrounding visitors with multicolored formations of 240-million-year-old rock as they plunge 2,000 feet down to a claustrophobic riverbed just 20 feet wide in places.
Convenient to Salt Lake City, Las Vegas, and the Grand Canyon, this popular Utah park also features a striking desert landscape of arches, mountains, buttes, mesas, and monoliths. Zion Canyon can be accessed by the 6.2-mile Zion Canyon Scenic Drive; visitors are shuttled from the park visitor center to eight stops, including trails to the popular Emerald Pools. At road's end is the trailhead of the one-mile Riverside Walk, permitting visitors to follow the river through a narrow section of Zion Canyon. Beyond the paved path, hikers can walk or wade into the Zion Narrows. A separate visitor center is located at Kolob Canyon, which has its own five-mile scenic drive; here you'll find the trail to Kolob Arch, whose 310-foot span makes it one of the largest freestanding rock arches in the world.

The entrance Fee for a private vehicles is $30, however, that is subject to change perhaps in 2018 ($70). Zion National Park against a backdrop of the most breathtaking mountain panoramas you will ever see. Whether you are trying to catch your breath while climbing the incredible trail to Observation Point, Angles Landing, or watching the shadows constantly change the mood of the Court of the Patriarchs, Zion National Park is always ready to satisfy your desire for outdoor wonder.
