We travel to St George quite often since we have family in St George as well as in Las Vegas.  We are usually there for just a quick extended weekend adventure  here and there so we are always left with more to come back too.  This last Christmas break we were there for a few days and had the chance to try out a new trail at Zion National Park.

Canyon Overlook Trail

Little Mountaineers Rating: Moderate (1 mile round trip, uphill climb at the beginning, some drop offs and cliff areas, watch your young ones closely!)

This is a nice short trail that is unique and ends with stunning views of the canyon.  There are cliff and drop off areas, so for very young children you will want to carry them.  My 6 year old did great on his own.
