There are many fun slot canyons to explore in Southern Utah and this one happens to be close to both Bryce Canyon and Zion National Parks.

💡 TIP — this is an easier alternative to the narrows in Zion that is perfect for small kids and dogs, and great for spring if the Zion Narrows are closed due to high water levels.
