We are so stoked to offer this 4-day trip in Utah which includes hikes in the beautiful parks of Zion and Bryce Canyon. The trip boasts stunning views of hoodoos, rust-colored valleys, and nature-made keyholes that will leave you speechless. We will do some iconic hikes including the West Rim Trail that will give us views of Angel's Landing! You are sure to make some unforgettable memories on this trip!

The hikes that we have planned for this trip are rated as moderate-hard. Be prepared for substantial elevation gain over a short distance. You will want to be in decent hiking shape before this trip (30 min/mile on average). We will not be rushed and have the ability to stop for breaks or take a slow pace, but we want to make sure everyone is at a similar level so we can stay close together during the hike. The best way to train for the hikes in store would be to go for walks of equal distance and try to train for elevation gain if possible (hiking uphill or using a stair climber at a gym are a couple of ways). Comfortable hiking boots/shoes and a reliable daypack are a priority.

Day 2 - Zion Park
Hiking in Zion National Park
We will enjoy breakfast and coffee before loading up the van! We will be stoked to get out on our first hike of the trip! Our first trail of the day is Scout Lookout via the West Rim Trail. This hike is stunning and does not lack expansive views the whole duration of the trail. Part of this hike includes the famous Walter's Wiggles which is a segment of the trail made up of several tight switchbacks. This surely will get you breathing hard! Our trek ends at Scout Lookout where we will be able to see Angel's Landing, another iconic point in Zion National Park. After hiking the trail we will have a picnic lunch in the park and continue on to the next trailhead which will be selected by your guide depending on how much time we have available (this will be an easy hike with minimal elevation since it follows a rather difficult hike).

Once we are finished hiking we will hop back in the van and make our way to Bryce Canyon City. Upon arrival we will check into our new accommodations and have a group dinner.

Hiking: Scout Lookout via West Rim Trail; Hard 3.6 miles, 1,115' elevation gain (~2.5 hours to complete). Additional easy hike will be selected by your guide.

Hike amongst the Hoodoos in Bryce Canyon National Park
Today we will be up with the birds to catch the sunrise in Bryce Canyon National Park! After, we will have some brekkie and then head to our trailhead. We will be hiking the Figure 8 trail. As implied by the name, this is a loop trail that is in the shape of an 8. There will be no shortage of beautiful changing landscapes over the 6.3 miles of this hike. And of course Hoodoos for miles! We will take our time on this hike since we have all day and it is a stunning track so you'll want time to take in all the beauty!

After this stunner of a hike we will head back to the hotel to wash up and rest a bit before leaving to go and explore Bryce Canyon City. The town has lots of souvenir shops so we can get some touristy goodies before heading to dinner.

I had an amazing time on our Sedona trip! The first day of hiking was moderate yet challenging for me in some areas. I sometimes feel that I have to accept the fact that I am aging and can’t do what I once was able to do. But I truly felt accomplished and have a renewed sense of achievement and want to do more hiking with the Chicas! The tour we took to Antelope Canyon and the beauty of our surroundings was indescribable! I really enjoyed getting to know our guide Jocelyn! I am beyond thankful for The Chicas Abroad Group! Through Melanie and many of the Chicas, I am learning to become an OVERCOMER!

By Kelly A for SOLD OUT! Sedona Hiking Adventure on Nov 30, 2024

We love that you found us, Kelly! You are so fun to adventure with and we are happy to hear that these trips are making you feel accomplished and overcome! Looking forward to more adventures with you!

By Chicas Abroad on Nov 30, 2024

Sedona was a wonderful adventure with family, past Chicas, and new Chicas. It is a blessing to show up and have Melanie, the leader, get us to where we are to go; pay for the meals etc. I am 68 and not a fast hiker, however, the group was patient with me and always had my back, along with encouraging words. If I had to say no to a particular section of the hike where the group could meet me on the return that was completely acceptable. Memories were formed that are eternal: so worth the expense and time. God Bless

I thoroughly enjoyed the Chicas Abroad hiking trip to Sedona. When they say that they take care of all the details, they mean it. All you have to do is register and show up! It is a worry free adventure where both introverts and extroverts are welcome. The food was delicious and the company even better! The hiking, scenery, and day trip to antelope canyon were memorable experiences. I can’t wait to sign up for my next adventure with Chicas Abroad!

By Marcia R for SOLD OUT! Sedona Hiking Adventure on Nov 07, 2024

The hiking was amazing, the weather was perfect, and the gals on the trip were fantastic! Jocelyn and Melanie planned everything and anticipated every detail. I can’t wait to travel with the group again and have already signed up for another trip! Thank you for a wonderful experience!
