Happy October 1st friends! 🥹🍂❤️🔥
Fun fact, October is my favorite month of the year! 🙌🏼 It’s also my birthday month 😂 but more importantly, it’s the month that feels the most coziest & fall fill month of all 🥰
So in honor of a great fall month ahead, here is one of my absolute favorite (fall) hikes in the world 🔥 and a fall hike you DO NOT want to miss- seriously, look at these views!!!
📍West Rim Trail, Zion National Park, Utah
‼️Things to Note: This trail is also known as Scout’s Lookout Trail!
ALSO, this is actually the trail that leads you to Angel’s Landing, BUT YOU DO NOT NEED A PERMIT FOR THIS PART OF THE TRAIL (only for the angel’s landing portion)
🥾 The trail is 4.2 miles or so! It took us about 3 hours from start to finish (note, we did not do angel’s landing so this timeframe does not account for that)
The trail is considered “HARD” or “STRENUOUS” because there’s high/long drop offs-
They say it’s not recommended for children or people afraid of heights. BUT personally, I did not feel unsafe because the trail was wide during the sections where the drop offs are (see 2nd clip). Obviously hike at your own risk, but I didn’t personally feel like it was super super hard!
🍁 We did this trail in November so keep in mind that the conditions may vary
🧤 The deeper you get into the trail, the higher the elevation gets, so be sure to wear layers because it gets cold the higher you go!
🚌 You’ll find this trail in “The Grotto”, so you can take the park shuttle from the visitors center to Stop 6 to access this :)
Happy Hiking, friends! 🙌🏼🍂
