Watersports in a Desert Oasis
What do you do when it’s hot outside and you are in the middle of the desert in Greater Zion? Jump in one of three lakes of course! Sand Hollow State Park, Quail Creek State Park, and Gunlock State Park are the three main bodies of water that make our little oasis in the desert a reality! There really is no better way to spend a hot summer day than out on the water.
And the outfitters below are ready and willing to set you up for a beautiful day on the water, whether you want the power of a speed boat and all the ski gear, or just a simple paddle board or kayak. Your water adventure awaits.
Hiking with kids, or with those who are new to the sport, doesn’t have to be an all-day activity. A few hours will likely be more than enough. Snow Canyon State Park is a great place to break in hiking shoes and assess hiking abilities. Several easily accessible trails are perfect for new hikers, yet still offer breathtaking views.
