If you want epic views of Zion Canyon without having to climb Angels Landing, then head to Observation Point. The East Mesa Trail takes you through a pinyon-juniper forest and past towering ponderosas before opening up to Observation Point, one of the best views in Zion National Park (you’ll be able to see Angels Landing in the distance). 

Be advised, the East Mesa Trail is currently the ONLY trail you can hike to access Observation Point. There used to be an alternative way of hiking to Observation Point from Weeping Rock in Zion Canyon, but the trail is closed due to rockfall.
