Zion Adventure Company specializes in helping thousands of people safely hike the Zion Narrows year-round. In 1996, we innovated Canyoneering Drysuits and Dry Pants, special Canyon Footwear designed specifically for river hiking, and our Pre-Trip Narrows Orientation, an informational session preparing and enhancing hikers’ risk management skills. You can hike the Narrows without our help, but those who visit us discover a safer, more comfortable way to enjoy the experience of a lifetime.
