A quick two and a half hour ride away from Las Vegas is Zion National Park in Southern Utah. If you are thinking about a fabulous way to spend a day away from the action of the Las Vegas strip, Zion National Park is a great choice. Sandstone cliffs welcome you in the valley and slick rock sandstone formations will awe you in the higher elevations of the National Park.
Make sure to have your cameras ready and your hiking shoes packed as the beauty of Zion National Park is best viewed from the hikes that afford you a better look at the valley floor from high above.
Looking for more day trips from Las Vegas? There is so much to see in Southern Nevada and the surrounding states you'll be amazed at just how easy it is to do a day trip from Las Vegas to a picturesque location in the southwest.
Thanks. My niece and nephews are going up at the end of the month. I’m sure their parents will like this. They are home schooled. So it a great learning experience as well as nice vacation for mom & dad.
