Description
Bike and Walk a National Park
Bring your family to explore three of the nation’s most colorful natural parks both on bike and on foot, taking plenty of time to enjoy the high-desert landscape, otherworldly rock formations and spectacular vistas. Hike among the spindly spires and pinnacles of Bryce, pedal your way to the Grand Canyon where scenic walks—and perhaps even a mule ride!—await, and venture along one of many trails that zigzag through Zion Canyon. With campsites perched on canyon rims and under the cool canopy of towering pines, Backroads allows you to truly feel the majesty and awesome power of these spectacular settings. With plenty of options, free time to explore and leaders who know the native flora and fauna like the back of their hands, this is a fantastic journey for the whole family!
