Zion Canyon Overlook
Starting near the Zion–Mount Carmel Tunnel, the Canyon Overlook Trail climbs sandstone steps and follows rocky ledges above Pine Creek’s shadowed slot canyon.
The route then winds through pale slickrock, canyon walls, desert shrubs, and sheltered alcoves, with chances to spot bighorn sheep along the way.
It finishes at a fenced cliff-edge viewpoint over lower Zion Canyon, with broad views toward the Towers of the Virgin and the park’s red-and-cream sandstone landscape.
