Guided Hike In Angels Landing
Overview
Join All Ways Adventure for the Angels Landing hike, one of Zion National Park's most challenging trails. This climb takes you up a 1,488-foot rock formation, offering impressive views and a strong sense of achievement. Our experienced guides will lead you through Walter’s Wiggles switchbacks to Scout Lookout, where the adventure intensifies. As you navigate the narrow ridge with steep drop-offs on both sides, you'll rely on the chains bolted into the rock for support.

When you click "Book Now," you'll be prompted to choose the option that fits your needs:
- Hiking: Angel's Landing (GUIDE PERMIT): Choose this option if you need us to secure the necessary permit for your hike.

Is this hike safe with a guide?
Yes. Our experienced guides are trained in wilderness safety and trail navigation. They provide steady support, encouragement, and expert instruction as you hike, especially on the final exposed section with chains.
Is this hike suitable for first-timers or non-experts?
You do not need previous hiking experience, but you should be in good physical condition. The trail is strenuous and includes exposed ridgelines with steep drop-offs, but our guides help you pace the hike and stay confident throughout the journey.
What is the hardest part of the hike?
The final stretch from Scout Lookout to the summit involves a narrow ridge with sheer drop-offs on both sides. Chains are bolted into the rock for support, and your guide will help you navigate this section safely and calmly.
What should I bring for this hike?
Wear supportive hiking shoes with good grip and dress in layers. Bring water, snacks, sun protection, and a small backpack. Your guide will carry safety gear and help you prepare for the day.
