Great Idea!<\/p>\n<p>The Narrows is the most popular attraction in Zion National Park, Utah with a 5 star rating by visitors.<\/p>\n<p>The Zion Narrows is one of the most iconic hikes in the world because of the textured gorge walls which appear to change color from reds to yellows depending on the movement of the sun.<\/p>\n<p>Oh, and it also happens to be rather unique as the trail is&nbsp;almost entirely through a river.<\/p>\n<p>Planning for the Narrows hike in Zion is a unique challenge due to the trail being, err, aquatic.

But first, the question on everyone&rsquo;s lips.<\/p>\n<blockquote><p><strong>See more:<\/strong> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.utahvacationers.com\/best-hotels-near-zion-national-park\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Best hotels near Zion National Park<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<h3>How long does it take to hike the Narrows?<\/h3>\n<p>The most popular route is the Narrows Bottom Up, which has no formal turnaround point. Two popular turnaround points are:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Orderville Canyon &ndash; 5 hours round trip (5 miles round trip from the Temple of Sinawava shuttle stop).<\/li>\n<li>Big Spring &ndash; 10 hours round-trip (10 miles round trip from the Temple of Sinawava shuttle stop).<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>The longest trail of the Narrows is the Top Down from Chamberlain&rsquo;s Ranch to the Temple of Sinawava which is 16 miles. The US National Parks service advises the hike will take 12 hours in good conditions.<\/p>\n<p>Most people taking the Top Down Narrows route camp overnight so they can appreciate the hike a bit more.<\/p>\n<p><noscript><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-32561\" src=\"http:\/\/coupletraveltheworld.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/05\/virgin-river-zion-narrows.jpg\" alt=\"wading-river-zion-national-park\" width=\"1080\" height=\"608\"><\/noscript><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-32561 lazyload\" src=\"http:\/\/coupletraveltheworld.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/05\/virgin-river-zion-narrows.jpg\" alt=\"wading-river-zion-national-park\" width=\"1080\" height=\"608\" data-mvt-skip=\"src\" data-trellis-processed=\"1\"><\/p>\n<h3>Bottom Up (Day Hike) &ndash; No Permit<\/h3>\n<p>It is absolutely possible to hike the Narrows (at least a good distance) in one day.<\/p>\n<p>The Narrows trail is 16 miles long, but many hikers wade up the river to Roderville Canyon (5 hours round trip) or Big Spring (10 hours round trip) before returning downstream.<\/p>\n<p>Of course, you can hike a shorter distance. If you do feel like a long hike, it is prohibited to walk beyond Big Spring.<\/p>\n<p>Where to Start?: Catch the bus to the Temple of Sinawava &gt; walk 1 mile along the paved Riverside Walk &gt; get in the Virgin River &ndash; it&rsquo;s time to hike (wade) up as far as you feel like!<\/p>\n<p>What do you need to hike the Narrows Zion? A permit is not necessary. You should wear sturdy footwear.

We inexplicably didn&rsquo;t know about this pass until it was too late, and we ended up paying for entry to 5 &ndash; 6 parks.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<h3>Permits<\/h3>\n<p>Do you need to have a permit to hike the Narrows? No, a permit is not necessary to hike Zion Narrows.<\/p>\n<p>Do you need a reservation to hike the Narrows? No reservation is needed to hike the Narrows but <strong>you will need a permit if you chose to hike from the Narrows Top Down trail<\/strong> (usually overnight). Most people hike the Narrows Bottom Up &ndash; no permit is required for this route.<\/p>\n<p>You can find out more information about permits and book online up to 3 months in advance <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nps.gov\/zion\/planyourvisit\/narrowspermits.htm\">here<\/a>.<\/p>\n<h3>Is the Narrows Hike Safe?<\/h3>\n<p>If you&rsquo;ve read our other posts from Zion National Park, you&rsquo;ll know the other popular trails including <a href=\"https:\/\/www.utahvacationers.com\/angels-landing-hike\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Angel&rsquo;s Landing<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.utahvacationers.com\/emerald-pool-zion-national-park-hike\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Emerald Pools<\/a> are notoriously dangerous. They have a body count serial killers would be proud of.<\/p>\n<p>The Narrows is no exception. Although Park Rangers close the Narrows trail when conditions are dangerous and don&rsquo;t issue permits when the flow is 120 cubic feet per second (cfs) or greater,&nbsp;flash floods do occur.<\/p>\n<p>You should remain vigilant when hiking the Narrows and especially keep children within sight at all times as the river can be deceptively strong.<\/p>\n<p>The rocks can be slippery and it only takes a second to slip and fall under the water which can often by up to mid-waist.<\/p>\n<p><noscript><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-32567\" src=\"http:\/\/coupletraveltheworld.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/zion-wildlife.jpg\" alt=\"squirrel-zion-national-park\" width=\"912\" height=\"608\"><\/noscript><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-32567 lazyload\" src=\"http:\/\/coupletraveltheworld.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/zion-wildlife.jpg\" alt=\"squirrel-zion-national-park\" width=\"912\" height=\"608\" data-mvt-skip=\"src\" data-trellis-processed=\"1\"><\/p>\n<h2>How to Get to the Narrows in Zion?<\/h2>\n<p>The Narrows are in Zion National Park, Utah.<\/p>\n<p>Most people chose to drive to the park which can be reached by SR-9. Except for scheduled tours, no public transportation runs to Zion National Park.<\/p>\n<p>The nearest airports are St George Municipal airport (SGU), Cedar City Airport (CDC) 1 hour from the park. For international connections, Las Vegas airport is 2.5 hours away.<\/p>\n<p>It is possible to park in Zion National Park and then walk to Zion Canyon Visitor Center.<\/p>\n<h3>How do you get to the Narrows in Zion?<\/h3>\n<p>Catch the shuttle from Zion Canyon Visitor Center to the Temple of Sinawava (stop 9).<\/p>\n<p>From the temple walk 1 mile along the Riverside Walk.

These are so versatile we&rsquo;ve used ours all over the world from island hopping in the Philippines to wading through the incredible gorge of Zion Narrows.<\/p>\n<p>Waterproof camera &ndash; it would take a braver soul than me to take my DSLR out in the Virgin River if the water is any deeper than my ankles. The current is too strong to risk it. So unless you&rsquo;re supremely confident the river won&rsquo;t be flowing strong, you should ensure you&rsquo;re bringing a waterproof camera.<\/p>\n<p>Waterproof case (mobile) &ndash; a waterproof case might just be the best few dollars you ever spend. If you are planning on bringing a phone as your main camera &ndash; do yourself a favour and pick a case which has a sturdy lanyard to ensure your phone doesn&rsquo;t disappear in the current if it slips from your fingers.<\/p>\n<p>Waterproof case (camera) &ndash; any epic water shots are taken with more than a GoPro &ndash; you&rsquo;ll need to have a proper waterproof case for your DSLR.<\/p>\n<h3>What should I wear to the Narrows?<\/h3>\n<p>Bringing appropriate clothing for your Narrows hike can be the difference between a perfect, unforgettable day and a forgettable day. Failing to prepare is preparing to fail.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/amzn.to\/3qXYTYa\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Water shoes<\/a> &ndash; Let&rsquo;s start with the obvious, which we somehow managed to remember. Water shoes are a better option than old shoes because you&rsquo;ll be walking over slippery rocks, and old shoes tend to lack grip. Slipping into the river is guaranteed to make your hike a less comfortable experience. Do you need water shoes to hike the Narrows? No, but we recommend them. It certainly made our hike more comfortable and assured.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_32563\" style=\"width: 1090px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><noscript><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-32563\" class=\"wp-image-32563 size-full\" src=\"http:\/\/coupletraveltheworld.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/05\/what-to-wear-the-narrows-zion.jpg\" alt=\"water-shows-the-narrows-zion\" width=\"1080\" height=\"608\"><\/noscript><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-32563\" class=\"wp-image-32563 size-full lazyload\" src=\"http:\/\/coupletraveltheworld.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/05\/what-to-wear-the-narrows-zion.jpg\" alt=\"water-shows-the-narrows-zion\" width=\"1080\" height=\"608\" data-mvt-skip=\"src\" data-trellis-processed=\"1\"><p id=\"caption-attachment-32563\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Wondering what to pack for the Narrows Zion?

Plus, it will dry quick if you go for a quick dip (intended or otherwise).<\/p>\n<p>Sunscreen &ndash; you&rsquo;ll be exposed to the elements for a long time. Unless you&rsquo;re more powerful than the sun, you should slip, slop slap.<\/p>\n<p>Mosquito repellent &ndash; even though the water is fast-moving it&rsquo;s possible to find lots of mosquitoes. Don&rsquo;t let these pests ruin your day.<\/p>\n<p>If you&rsquo;ve arrived at Zion without any gear, you can visit Zion Outfitters to rent some of the above gear.<\/p>\n<p>With all that said, as you can see from the photos above we survived without most of the above gear.<\/p>\n<p>Sure, we were colder and wetter than others, but we still enjoyed our hike. Don&rsquo;t avoid the hike only because your don&rsquo;t have all bells and whistles.<\/p>\n<h2>FAQ<\/h2>\n<p>These are some of the most common questions we&rsquo;ve been asked by people planning to visit the Narrows.<\/p>\n<h3>What is the best time of day to hike the Narrows?<\/h3>\n<p>The morning is the best time to hike the Narrows to avoid crowds which arrive from 9 &ndash; 10am. By late afternoon people start leaving too, so you may enjoy a quieter walk.<\/p>\n<p>The downside of hiking the Narrows in early morning \/ late afternoon &ndash; it gets shaded by the high rock face and becomes much colder than in the middle of the day when the sun is directly above. On the other hand, the middle hours of the day is also the best time for photography as the sun overhead will illuminate the rich red stone walls.<\/p>\n<h3>How deep is the water in the Zion Narrows?<\/h3>\n<p>The water is 2 &ndash; 3 feet deep at most points of the trail. After rainfall the water levels can swell to the point where the trail is closed.<\/p>\n<h3>Have people died hiking the Narrows?<\/h3>\n<p>Yes, sadly people have died while hiking the narrows.<\/p>\n<p>Most recently, a lady <a href=\"https:\/\/www.fox4news.com\/news\/zion-national-park-death-the-narrows-2022\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">died of hypothermia<\/a> while hiking the narrows during winter. Be careful and don&rsquo;t take any unnecessary risks.<\/p>\n<h3>When can you hike the Narrows?<\/h3>\n<p>Can you hike the narrows in [insert month]? The Narrows is only closed by Zion National Park rangers when conditions are unsafe. This means you can hike the narrows in January, February, March, April, May, June, July, August, September, October, November and December. I think you get the picture.<\/p>\n<h4>Hiking the Narrows in May<\/h4>\n<p>The Narrows is closed every year during snow melt, which usually happens in April and May but can happen as late as June or July. The narrows is closed at these times as the melting snow causes high water levels.<\/p>\n<h2>Where to Stay<\/h2>\n<p>Accommodation in or near Zion National Park fills up on weekends and public holidays, so you may need to consider looking further afar to places like St George.
