- Hiking along a narrow rocky steep trail is what makes Angels Landing so breathtaking that hikers will need to stay vigilant throughout the hike. With detailed and precise steps, hikers will be gifted with unforgettable vast views of Zion Canyon above1,000 vertical feet below ground level
Angels Landing starts along the well-marked West Rim Trail and gains elevation quickly to reach the elevated mouth of Refrigerator Canyon. As the path nears the head of the canyon, it begins a strenuous ascent of the east wall. Heavy chains attached to the rock serve as handrails along most of the drop-offs. Hikers must make a steep scramble to surmount the first knob, followed by an unprotected walk across a narrow saddle that is flanked by sheer drop-offs.
The attraction of Angels Landing is its “living on the edge” factor of dangerous exposure. The last half-mile of the route, called the chains section, is dramatic and narrow. The path is only a few feet wide here, thinner than a sidewalk, and exposed to high cliffs. Sometimes the cliffs are on both sides of the trail. There’s a series of chain link handrails drilled into the rock. The chains add a measure of safety and intrigue to the hike, but accidents still happen and had caused 14 deaths
Starting April 1, 2022 all hiking Angels Landing will need a permit. The National Park Service will issue permits by online lottery: go.nps.gov/AngelsLanding.
