Zion, Escalante AND Bryce? Thrice as Nice.
Go deeper into these three parks — both geographically and experientially — with a little help from your new best friends at Wildland Trekking.
In Utah, we don’t believe in sightseeing. Anyone can look at the scenery, take a pic, apply an oversaturated filter and become an Instagram hero. The parks around here deserve more. They deserve to be explored, to be communed with, to have you listen to their storied history.
That kind of experiential travel takes a little more work, and that’s where the folks from Wildland Trekking come in. Their basecamp hiking tours offer an authentic camping experience that gets you into the beating heart of these museums of ancient art.
There are three itineraries to choose from, but here's the longest one.
