Riverside Walk Trail Map


 

Riverside Walk

This easy walk is constructed of concrete and is usable by baby strollers and wheelchairs with assistance.

TRAILHEAD: The 1.0-mile trail begins at the Temple of Sinawava Parking Area at the end of the Zion Canyon Scenic Drive, and takes about 1-1/2 hours to complete. It is a delightful walk during late afternoon or an early summer evening.

Near the start of the trail note the ''Narrow Canyon Danger Level'' sign, updated daily to reflect conditions for river hiking beyond the end of this trail.

The park's most popular trail follows the pools and small rapids of the Virgin River up the dramatically-narrowing canyon. High cliffs and abundant springs offer a cool, moist environment where a diversity of plants and small animals live. In summer, many visitors stop and soak their feet in the cool river.
