О туре

Bicycling Magazine’s editor called it “the most awe-inspiring and unique landscape I’ve ever pedaled through.” Bryce and Zion National Parks are a marvel. Mega-boulders of orange sandstone balance on razor-thin needles; arches glow with unearthly fire; slot canyons unspool between cliffs of gold and rose. Whether you are a novice or an experienced cyclist, this biking and hiking tour gives you an intimate encounter with the canyonlands - from curving roads to labyrinths, aspen forests and breathtaking panoramas.

Программа тура

День 1

Meet in St. George. Ride from the giant Cedar Breaks amphitheater to Panguitch, then (if you wish) to the hotel near the entrance to Bryce Canyon.

Meet us in St. George and begin riding in Dixie National Forest's Cedar Breaks National Monument –

a huge amphitheater of amazing red and orange sandstone sculptures carved by the wind and rain. Descend through the aspens and pines of Dixie National Forest to the flat farmland around the town of Panguitch. Cycle past the vivid sandstone formations of Red Canyon on a paved bike path leading to Bryce Canyon National Park, where you'll spend the next two nights at the Bryce Canyon Grand Hotel or the Main Lodge at Ruby’s Inn.

56.3 miles · +2,148 ft / -4,942 ft (the afternoon 15 mi. / +1200 ft climb is optional)

День 2

Hike the Queen’s Garden / Navajo Loop and Fairyland trails. Ride from panoramic Rainbow Point.

Go for a hike on the Navajo / Queens Garden loop in the morning. Cone-shaped hoodoos resembling wizards and gnomes guard the path; ravens call down to them from above and beyond every curve lies a jaw-dropping view. In the afternoon, ride from panoramic Rainbow Point back to the hotel – a delightful 17-mile downhill – or tackle a more challenging ride there-and-back.

20.6 miles · +926 ft / -2,372 ft, plus some hiking

День 3

Watch the sun rise over Bryce's hoodoos. Ride into Zion; picnic at the Canyon Overlook. Then ride Zion Canyon Scenic Drive - no cars are allowed.

Start off with a sunrise hike to our favorite Bryce Canyon overlook. Statue-like hoodoos appear to glow from within as the sun’s rays creep down the canyon walls. After breakfast, bicycle through ranch lands along the Sevier and Virgin Rivers into Zion National Park. Bicycling magazine calls Zion "one of the world’s most beautiful places to ride." Red cliffs tower beside the road as you descend the east side of the canyon; at the bottom, the six-mile cruise along the flat valley floor can take all afternoon as you stop to gaze up at the massive, multicolored heights. Spend the next three nights at the Springhill Suites or the Red Cliffs Lodge Zion.

34.7 miles · +2038 ft / -3966 ft (NOTE: tunnel significantly skews these elevation gain/loss stats)

День 4

Choose from a range of hikes or biking routes in Zion Canyon.

Today we head to a panoramic vista point above the canyon walls. Wind your way up "Walter's Wiggles" to “Scouts Lookout.” People with an extreme fear of heights may prefer a more leisurely stroll to a beautiful waterfall. (On the other hand, folks with absolutely NO fear of heights can contact our office about getting a special permit to do the “chain hike” to Angel’s Landing.) Prefer to ride? Choose between scenic and/or challenging cycling options inside Zion National Park and on its border (no van support). Since the Park Service runs frequent free shuttle buses from our inn, through town, to the visitor center, and through Zion's valley floor, you can customize your experience.

Hike: 3.6 miles, +1115 ft gain

День 5

Hike into the Narrows – a stunningly scenic slot canyon hailed as the ‘best hike in all the National Park System’.

Conditions permitting, we offer a river walk into the Virgin River's Narrows – a stunningly gorgeous slot canyon with walls towering more than 1,000 feet high. The river covers the narrow canyon's base wall-to-wall in places, so you’ll be wading in and out of ankle-deep water as you hike through a rock-walled passageway less than 50 feet wide. We supply walking sticks and wading boots for this unusual and fun experience.

Hike: 5.1 miles (or less). Uneven terrain, wet-hike.

Day 6

Ride from Zion through scenic valleys to a final celebratory lunch at Quail Creek Reservoir.

Ride the virtually traffic-free Scenic Drive through Zion Canyon – no cars are allowed here! The cruise up and back to the end of the road along the valley floor can take much longer than the mileage may indicate as you stop to gaze up at the massive, multicolored heights and contemplate the sparkling river. The tour ends after lunch back in Springdale with a one-hour shuttle back to St. George.

18.9 mi +1283 ft / -1280 ft

Детали тура

Размещение / проживание

Our regional expertise, a constant re-evaluation of last year's inns, and a continuing search for the best experience ensure that our lodging is always among the finest the area has to offer. By limiting the number of guests on each trip, we expand our choices and are able to fit into some smaller, award-winning bed and breakfasts and country inns that wouldn't be able to accommodate a larger group.

Lodging is based upon two people sharing a room with a private bath. If you're traveling solo on any of our trips and you're open to sharing a room with another solo traveler of the same gender, you pay 50% of the single supplement fee up front. If we are able to assign you a roommate, that fee is refunded to you. You can guarantee a private room and bath if you pay the full Single Supplement Fee. Occasionally a room with two beds consists of one bed plus a rollaway bed or sofa bed. Call our office to see if this is applicable to the trip and date you select.

Транспорт

You are welcome to ride in the van at any time - no explanation required. Some want a lift for just a few miles; others have ridden in the van for the entire trip. It's your vacation - you decide.

We use a fleet of specially ordered and customized 15-passenger vans. Most have a seven-liter V-10 engine, high rear axle ratio, and heavy-duty trailer towing package for efficiently moving a van full of people pulling a large trailer full of luggage and food. Each van also has heavy-duty professional bicycle racks on top of a custom-made, steelwork platform on the roof.

Питание

All meals except for one lunch and one dinner are included in the cost of your tour. On the days that you're on your own for a meal, there will be ample options within walking distance of our location.

At Bicycle Adventures we like to eat well. Dinner is eaten together at the best restaurant in the area each night. If we have to shuttle everyone a short distance to get to that special place, we do it. At most restaurants, you order what you want from the menu. Except for alcohol, everything is included, even appetizers, salad, soup, and dessert. Breakfast is typically provided by the hotels and inns that we stay at, but if there's a local spot known for great breakfast, we'll find it and you'll be treated to a nutritious meal to start off your day. Lunch is provided at a state park or similar scenic setting midway during the day’s ride. Guests are always surprised at the variety and quality of lunches we prepare. Besides sandwich fixings and cold drinks, we offer fresh fruits and vegetables and hot lunches such as tortellini with pesto or veggie burritos. If you prefer a certain item of food or drink, just let your tour guide know and we will be sure to prepare just the right lunch to keep your energy up for the rest of the day.

During the day water, fruit juices, soft drinks, energy bars, fruit, and snacks are available from the van. A cold beer from our cooler waits at the end of the day, and you can relive the day’s highlights at our wine and cheese party before dinner.

Гид

Our guides are selected and trained for unparalleled personal service. Their backgrounds vary, but all share a love for the outdoors and, most importantly, a desire to help people make the most of their vacation. There are several ski instructors, a political analyst, an Emmy-winning journalist, and a college professor, among others. Almost all are college graduates. All are mature adults with expertise in leading our tours and extensive knowledge of the region we travel through. Almost all of last year's guides will be returning to lead our trips again, so you can count on having experienced leaders who love what they do.
