Angels Landing hike at Zion National Park with good drop-off views

This hike is not for anyone with a fear of heights. The clincher for most hikers is the last half-mile to the top that I show on the video, where you must climb along a narrow ridge that has dizzing drop-offs on both sides of about 1500 feet. Six people have fallen to their deaths in the past several years but my guess is your greater risk was the drive to the Zion National Park so be safe and I hope you enjoy the video. Have a great day!

Don’t know if I could do this hike all the way to the top. Heights bother me. But I’d be up for the challenge, though. Great video!

Thanks for posting this. I quit this hike after the first set of chains. That was three years ago and I still wish to make another attempt. But I can see it simply gets even more exposed as you near the top. Thank you, again.

“Six people have fallen to their deaths in the past several years but my guess is your greater risk was the drive to the Zion National Park.” If you figure 1 in 100 people who drive to Zion get to the top of this hike (instead of chickening out like me, or not trying in the first place), then 600 people would have had to die driving there in the last few years for this statement to be true.

that guy at 6:10 really trusted you to not bump him or lose your footing. I love this hike. Just did it once, but will remember it forever as one of my best!

it takes maybe 3 hours to go up and 1 to go down if you like to stop and take pictures. if you’re in good enough shape and u don’t stop, i bet you could get up there in 2. leave as early as possible.

I just did this …
I just did this with my 13 year old son. It is NOT difficult provided you are not afraid of heights. The trick is get an early start and be done by 10am before the idiots and crowds take over. THEN the chance for accidents goes way up.

I was just there on Tuesday, on Sunday a 55 year old Mother fell from the top while holding the chain on Sunday while she was with her family. So sad. Please don’t bring your children on this one, I will never attempt myself (big chicken).

this trail is sooooooo scary! my boyfriend and i did most of the chain part but when we got to the last plateau where you look up and see the steep ascent to the top we had to turn around because we didn’t have it in us. now finishing angels landing is on my bucket list
