Bindlestiff Private Tours is one of the premier private tour companies in America, specializing in tours of the southwestern National Parks. What makes the tours that are offered to adventure groups and the private tours so different is the completely customizable aspect that is gained when booking a private tour. In addition to limiting the group to only those people chosen by you, the tours themselves are able to be fully customized so as to explore the exact areas that you specify. One such case is Zion National Park, which is available through Bindlestiff Tours as part of a two day excursion featuring some of the finest scenery and hiking available in Utah, but is also available as a private tour that allows you to personally explore the trails and areas within Zion that you desire. While the typical group tour takes you to specific areas of Zion for a full day of exploration, there are still many other trails and areas that are not within our typical program, as they cannot all be explored within the timeframe of a one day trip. To satisfy the more adventurous hikers, we offer the private hiking tour of Zion which can be completely customized to experience trails that are not typically hiked, and for timeframes that are as long as you desire.
Zion National Park is considered one of the best hiking destinations in the United States. The park itself has many miles of hiking trails for all skill levels, and each has it’s own unique features. The following is a list of the trails available for hiking within Zion, and a few interesting elements about each trail. Some of the lower trails are wheelchair accessible.

Emerald Pool-Middle
