Zion is one of the gems of the National Park system (in fact, all six of the National Parks included in this itinerary should be considered among the gems).  The Visitor Center is only about 2 hours and 45 minutes (164 miles) from the center of Las Vegas. During popular times of the year, the park is crowded, and destinations within the park are now mostly reachable only by park transportation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The route from Las Vegas to Zion NP is pretty simple. North on I-15 until you see the signs.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

I won’t spend many pixels describing Zion. Lots of others have done much more, in print and on the web, than I can do here. I’ll limit myself here to sharing a few photos and one link: JOE’S GUIDE TO ZION NATIONAL PARK<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
