UTAH

Welcome to Utah, paradise for outdoor enthusiasts! From National Parks to ski resorts and golf courses, beautiful Park City to historic Temple Square, sunny St George to bustling Salt Lake City to tranquil Lake Powell, Utah will surprise you with its variety.  We picked out a few destinations in the southern part of the state…

  • Zion National Park – Designated in 1919, Zion is Utah's oldest national park. The park is known for its incredible canyons and spectacular views. Famous hikes including The Narrows, Subway, and Angels Landing attract adventure enthusiasts from around the world. Hiking possibilities are endless. With nearly three million visitors per year, Zion is Utah's most heavily used park.
  • St. George – St. George is known as "Utah's Dixie" because of its temperate climate. Mild winters make it ideal for golf year-round – 10 of Utah's best courses are located there! The city is the business and cultural center for SW Utah, and is a major gateway to nearby Zion National Park
  • Lake Powell – Lake Powell, in Glen Canyon National Recreation Area, is one of the world's great places for houseboating! The 186-mile long lake offers sandy beaches, cool blue water, and exceptional red-rock scenery. It is excellent for boating, skiing, kayaking and fishing. Boat or hike to Rainbow Bridge, or explore any of its many canyons or sand dunes. With a shoreline longer than the whole western coast of the continental United States, Lake Powell offers adventure for everyone.
  • Monument Valley – Four Corners – Over the years, Monument Valley has been the setting for more Western movies than any other site in the United States. Unique sandstone formations, the Navajo Indian Nation and the Four Corners Monument define this vast, open desert region. Some of Utah's great hikes are found here. The Four Corners is the only place in the United States where four states (Arizona, New Mexico, Utah, and Colorado) come together at one place.
