Your Guide to Hiking Weeping Rock Zion–Now Reopened!

Imagine a hike with a lovely stream, incredible views, hanging gardens, and an alcove with an endless stream of water weeping from the rock wall overhead. This is real, and you’ll find it on the Weeping Rock Zion trail…but up until recently, you had to imagine it because the whole area was closed for a long time due to damage from a significant rockfall.

DIFFICULTY

Hiking Weeping Rock Zion is easy, though the trail is slightly steep, with about 100 feet of elevation gain to reach the alcove at the end. You can do this trail quickly in about half an hour or so, but I would recommend taking some time to savor the unique hanging gardens and water features of Weeping Rock. This really is a special place!

Note: The Weeping Rock trail is paved, but it is fairly narrow with some stairs at the end, so it is not accessible for wheelchairs or recommended for strollers.
