Hi! My name is Kim, and I've been a hiking guide in this area for 30 years, probably longer than you've been alive! I think being a hiking guide is the best job in the world: the beauty of nature, super interesting people, the sun, the clouds, the scenery, and everything else that makes the Great Outdoors great. I especially love Zion National Park and I would love to show it to you, since you and I are on a "middle-name" basis. Of course, you can't be a guide for 30 years without getting to know a thing or two about this area. I've studied the geology, biology, and history of this area extensively, and I want to share it with you, along with the 300 jokes that I've memorized. I've hiked and explored Zion at least a gazillion times, and possibly 1. 5 gazillion, so I think I know the area fairly well. I've come as a guide for 2 different local destination spas, and Road Scholar (a bus/hiking tour company mostly for seniors) where I worked as the geology instructor and trail guide. Being out on the trail is what I live for and I hope you give me a chance to share all of that with you! I have all the necessary permits, insurances, licenses, etc. necessary, as well as first aid and CPR certification All guiding services are restricted to certain trails, though these happen to be the most popular trails in the park.

Overview of your Springdale tour
Notice: For the foreseeable future we will not be able to serve groups larger than 6 people. Our big van died. Sorry. This tour starts at 7:00 AM and is designed for those with a more relaxed state of mind. The hiking trails will only number two, and they are quite mild, though incredibly beautiful. We will loop through the main canyon, followed by the east side with it's higher altitude gorgeous scenery and big horn sheep. We will finish with a leisurely hike on the west side of Zion. The stunning beauty of Zion National Park will remain with you for the rest of your life! Ideal for groups!
Your Springdale tour itinerary
We will meet you and your companions up at 7:00 AM at the Visitor Center within Zion National Park. Guests are responsible for entry fees. Our first trail will be along the Virgin River on the Pa'rus Trail, or The Riverside Trail, depending on crowds. Both are beautiful trails with breathtaking views. After leaving the Main Canyon we will drive to the East Side where visitor counts are usually low. We'll stop at different view areas, then head for the West Side. Our last stop will be to see the amazing scenery of Kolob Canyon, on the far western side of Zion. A short hike will take us to an amazing view area to see the blood red cliffs in the afternoon light!
