Zion Itinerary
for people who love to have a plan
Imagine your upcoming trip to Zion…
You’ve been looking forward to this trip for a while.
You’ve made your hard-to-get lodging reservations, using your limited vacation days to travel to one of the most unique places in America.
And you desperately want it to be unforgettable.
In your mind, you imagine a leisurely drive to the visitor center. You easily find a fabulous parking spot. And look, instead of waiting in line for an hour, the line for the shuttle is empty!
Your loved ones are gathered around, and they cannot contain their excitement. Everyone oohs and ahhs as the shuttle travels deeper into Zion Canyon.
As you disembark and begin hiking, you hear the wind rustling the leaves and the river gently flowing — not the disruptive voices of hundreds of people. You feel like you have the trail all to yourself.
You snap some amazing photos and marvel at the magnificent towering cliffs surrounding you.
You breathe in the fresh air…the beauty and solitude of nature rejuvenating your entire body.
Most people want to experience Zion in this way, but unfortunately, a trip like this rarely happens.
Not because it can’t, but because it won’t without a solid plan.
The reality is most trips to Zion National Park actually include:
- Sitting in traffic as you drive between sights
- Circling parking lots hoping to find a place to park (until your kids are whining and you’re super stressed out)
- Sharing the views with overwhelming crowds that make it difficult to feel the peace and solitude of nature
- Missing out on some amazing spots simply because they are lesser-known or because you run out of time
You’ve been spending a lot of time and money making your trip to Zion possible. Booking flights, searching for lodging, poring over maps and guidebooks, and packing your gear.
But don’t forget about the most important part — the day-to-day details!
When you get to Zion, WILL YOU HAVE THE INFORMATION YOU NEED to confidently navigate around the park?
You need a plan, but not just any plan.
YOU NEED A DIRT IN MY SHOES ITINERARY
With a Dirt In My Shoes Zion Itinerary in your hand, your trip can be everything you imagined…and more!
You won’t have to sit in traffic.
When you arrive at the busiest parking lots, they’ll still be empty.
You’ll confidently navigate through the park, never having to worry about getting lost or wasting time.
Your kids will put down their phones, turn off the tv, and discover a gorgeous outdoor playground that will ignite their sense of adventure.
You’ll hike on the park’s best trails, including some lesser-known and “secret” spots that you can enjoy without the crowds.
When you breathe in the fresh air, you’ll feel rejuvenated and calm.
Most of all, you’ll walk away with unforgettable memories and a sense of wonder for this spectacular place (your family will be begging for a return trip before you’ve even left the park).
I know how to make your trip incredible!
MY NAME IS ASH, AND I’M A FORMER PARK RANGER
“After working as a ranger and answering thousands of questions from visitors from all around the world, I can confidently say that most people totally miss out on some of the best parts of the parks! Don’t let that be you.”
I know that planning a national park trip can be overwhelming — I’ve been the designated trip planner in my family for a long time! Even if you enjoy trip planning, researching and organizing is a lot of work.
On top of that, the added pressure of keeping everyone in your family excited and engaged can be stressful.
You can spend hours on the internet searching for things to do, but you still won’t find the insider tips and first-hand knowledge that I’ve gained from years of working as a park ranger (and from visiting the park many times).
Now you can get the same insider information that I share with my closest family members and friends. It’s all included in your Dirt In My Shoes itinerary.
Are you excited to join the thousands of families
who use (and LOVE) these itineraries?
“This past summer, I purchased your Zion itinerary in preparation for a 10-day RV journey. I have to say that outside of hiking poles, the itinerary was the best purchase I made for the trip. It was a huge help in planning amazing days and managing expectations.
Our final day was the hike through the Narrows. My kids were skeptical, but by 8 p.m., four exhausted New Yorkers had dinner at the Whiptail Grill knowing they’d just shared an unforgettable experience.
We discovered things about our country, ourselves, and each other that we’ll never forget. Thanks so much for turning out a great product and helping make one Long Island mom’s dream vacation a reality.”
— Heather H.
A typical 3-day self-guided tour of Zion costs $150, and a guided tour can cost $500+.

How It Works
Here at Dirt In My Shoes, I know you want to have a phenomenal trip to Zion National Park. But if you want your trip to be better than you ever imagined, you need to have a solid plan.
The problem is, how do you make a solid plan if you’ve never been to the park before? The whole research process can be incredibly overwhelming and time-consuming (and you’ll likely still miss out on important details and tips).
I believe that every trip to Zion should be inspiring, rejuvenating, unforgettable, and stress-free! I understand that you’ve put a lot of time, money, and energy into planning this vacation. You’ve been looking forward to it for a long time.
That’s why I created these detailed, hour-by-hour Zion itineraries.
I’ll email you an easy-to-follow itinerary that will guide you to the best sights at the best times (so that you can avoid those notorious summer crowds). Then you just show up to the park and follow the itinerary — no extra guesswork or research required.
It’s time to get your Zion Itinerary. Now you can stop worrying about every little detail and instead start feeling the thrill of your upcoming vacation!
Are you worried about having the
most up-to-date information?
Don’t be!
These itineraries are completely updated to reflect the current conditions in the park. Let me show you how:
“Hi, we just got back from our trip. It was great — lots of family memories to last a lifetime. Before we left, my wife was making fun of me for how much preparation I was doing. When we got to Zion, she asked, ‘OK, what do we do?’. I handed her the itinerary, and she said, ‘we don’t need to think about anything’. She thought it was the best thing we did.
With all of the time and effort put into getting to the park, it’s a great feeling to have a plan set up by an expert with lots of knowledge. It was a great investment, and for the cost, I think people would be foolish not to buy your itinerary.”
— Chris P.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is the itinerary updated for current closures and conditions in the park?
The itinerary document can be used whenever you take your vacation — right now, or five years from now. You will receive critical updates from me via email regarding any alterations, changes, closures, and important news that will affect your itinerary.
You can relax knowing that I will provide any information you need to know before and during your trip.
Is this itinerary a good fit for me?
If you’re hoping to see the main sights, get off the beaten path, and hit some fabulous shorter hiking trails, then YES!
All activities included are family-friendly and good for explorers of all ages.
I’ve already planned my trip to Zion. Will this itinerary still be useful to me?
Definitely! Even if you already know what you want to see and do while you are there, it’s still important to factor in the driving time and the crowds. I’ve taken all of that into consideration while writing this itinerary so you can have confidence that you are seeing the attractions in the BEST and easiest way.
This is not my first trip to the park, and I don’t plan on seeing the popular spots (Emerald Pools or Angels Landing) again. Should I still purchase this itinerary?
This itinerary is designed for those who have either never been to Zion National Park before or haven’t been back for many years. If you don’t care to stop at the most popular attractions, this Zion Itinerary is probably not for you. That being said, if you would really like to delve into some of the park’s longer hiking trails, let me know! I would be happy to provide you with my recommendations.
Can I buy the itineraries separately?
The Zion 1, 2, and 3-day itineraries are only sold as a bundle. This gives you a lot of flexibility in your planning and ensures that you have exactly what you need to explore the park, even if your plans change!
What if I love to hike and hope to complete some long day hikes in the park?
These itineraries include time for two of the park’s most famous longer hikes — Angels Landing and The Narrows. If you want to complete additional day hikes {or go backpacking} during your trip, plan on factoring in extra days beyond what the itineraries cover.
“I purchased the Zion guide when I was in the planning stages of a family vacation – it really helped me understand how long we needed to stay in the area and which hikes to recommend for the different age groups traveling with me.
We have active family members 60+, couch potatoes (also in their 60s) right down to thirty-somethings with their 2, 5, 9, and 16-year-old children. I highly recommend Ash’s information!”
