Sunset E-Bike the Pa'rus Trail
Rent an e-bike at the Zion entrance to cruise this paved path as the Watchman turns vibrant orange against the dusk sky.
Itinerary tips
- 1Reserve your e-bikes online at least one week in advance from outfitters in Springdale like Zion Cycles or Gooseberry Mesa to ensure availability.
- 2Allocate at least two hours for the ride to allow for frequent photo stops at the Canyon Junction Bridge and the Virgin River access points.
- 3Park your vehicle at the Zion Canyon Visitor Center early or use the free Springdale shuttle to reach the park entrance.
- 4Pack a light windbreaker and a headlamp, as temperatures drop rapidly once the sun disappears behind the canyon walls.
- 5Carry a physical map or download an offline version, as cellular service is notoriously unreliable once you enter the canyon corridor.
- 6Stay to the right of the path and use your bell when passing hikers, especially near the busy South Campground section.
