    Angels Landing is one of the most popular and iconic hikes in Zion National Park, known for its thrilling exposure and breathtaking views. The trail is about 5.4 miles roundtrip with a steep elevation gain of 1,488 feet.

    The hike begins at the Grotto Trailhead and follows a paved path before transitioning into a series of switchbacks known as Walter’s Wiggles. The final section is the most challenging, with a narrow ridge and steep drop-offs on both sides, assisted by chains. Those who reach the summit are rewarded with sweeping views over Zion Canyon.

    This is a strenuous hike that requires proper preparation, including water, snacks, and sun protection. It can also get very crowded, especially during peak season.
