Angel's Landing is a challenging and iconic hike located in Zion National Park, Utah. The trail, which is 5.4 miles roundtrip, is known for its breathtaking views and steep drop-offs. The hike starts at the Grotto trailhead and follows the West Rim Trail to Scout Lookout, where the final ascent to the summit of Angel's Landing begins.
The trail is strenuous, with a 1,500-foot elevation gain, but the views along the way are worth it. Hikers will pass through a narrow canyon called Refrigerator Canyon, where the cool air provides a refreshing break from the heat. As the trail continues, hikers will reach Walter's Wiggles, a series of 21 steep switchbacks that lead to Scout Lookout.
From Scout Lookout, hikers will begin the final ascent to the summit of Angel's Landing, which involves holding onto chains that are bolted into the rock face. The trail is narrow and exposed, with sheer drop-offs on either side, so hikers should exercise caution and avoid the hike if they have a fear of heights.
Once at the summit, hikers are rewarded with panoramic views of Zion National Park and the surrounding landscape. The hike is considered one of the most thrilling and memorable in the park, but it's not for the faint of heart. Those who are up for the challenge will be rewarded with an unforgettable experience.
