Pick a day. We handle the rest.

The five packages — Zion in a Day, Bryce in a Day, Narrows in a Day, Snow Canyon in a Day and the Kanarraville Day — are ready-made days: pick one, send in your date and group size, and Seth builds that day's route from its trails around your fitness and pace. Build Your Own is the option below the packages for a custom mix: you choose the park, date, group size, pace, what you want from the day and your lunch, and Seth designs the day from there. Same parks, same trails and same prices either way — and in both cases Seth confirms the plan with you by email before anything is paid.

You choose the park, date, group size, pace, what you want from the day and your lunch. Seth then designs the actual hike — route, timing and trailhead — for your group and confirms it with you by email before anything is paid.

Yes. Every Packed Adventures hike is booked for one group only — maximum 8 guests — and is never combined with other parties.

Packages and Build Your Own days are priced the same: from $245 per person (Zion in a Day), $295 (Narrows in a Day), $295 (Bryce in a Day), $175 (Snow Canyon in a Day) and $295 (Kanarraville Day), per person at 4 or more guests. Groups of 2–3 pay more per person, and a solo day runs at a $500 minimum. Lunch is included; park entry is not. The Kanarraville Day also has a $25 per person commercial ticket, collected separately.

It's one set day, not a menu of options. Seth gets your group suited up with proper Narrows gear, you walk the Riverside Walk (about 1 mile) to the river, then hike the Narrows upstream as far as the Orderville Canyon junction and back — about 5 miles round trip total from the Temple of Sinawava, moderate to strenuous wading in the river. The day does not go into Orderville Canyon beyond the junction, and Packed Adventures does not offer Big Spring or a top-down Narrows hike.

Yes — Kanarra Falls, in Kanarraville, is the Kanarraville Day package (and an option in the builder), priced the same as the Narrows: from $295 per person at 4 or more guests. Two things to know: it's offered only once Packed Adventures' liability insurance naming the Town of Kanarraville is in force, and commercial tickets are limited to 20 per day — in peak season (April–October) they can sell out about a month ahead, so ask early. The $25 per person commercial ticket (your guide included) is on top of the day price, collected separately, like park entry elsewhere.

Only the trails explicitly allowed under the relevant CUA or park permit. Distances below are approximate and round trip unless marked one-way. In Zion, that's just three: Scout Lookout via the West Rim Trail (4.0–4.2 mi, strenuous), Canyon Overlook (1.0 mi, moderate) and Emerald Pools (1.2 mi to Lower, about 3.0 mi full loop, easy to moderate). The Narrows is a single Narrows Day — gear up, walk the Riverside Walk (about 1 mi) to the river, then hike upstream as far as the Orderville Canyon junction and back, about 5 mi total, moderate to strenuous wading; it does not go into Orderville beyond the junction, and there is no Big Spring or top-down option. At Bryce, frontcountry trails above and below the rim: Rim Trail (5.5 mi one-way, easy to moderate), Queen's Garden (1.8 mi, moderate), Navajo Loop (1.3 mi, moderate), the Queen's Garden / Navajo Loop combination (2.9 mi, moderate), Peekaboo Loop (5.5 mi, strenuous) and Fairyland Loop (8.0 mi, strenuous, 4–5 hours — the longer Bryce option). In Snow Canyon, designated trails only: Petrified Dunes (1.2 mi, moderate), Lava Flow (2.5 mi, moderate) and Johnson Canyon (2.0 mi, easy, closed March 15–September 14). Kanarra Falls is about 4 mi round trip, moderate, wading in the creek with a metal staircase at the first falls. Pick one in the builder or name it in your email, and Seth confirms the final trail with you when you book.

Not until your day is confirmed — Seth checks the permit position for your park and date first, emails you the built plan, and only then sends a Square payment link. Your date is held once payment is received.

Yes — a trail lunch for every guest is included in every day hike price. For Zion days, lunch normally comes from Deep Creek Coffee Co. in Springdale. Pick your lunch in the builder and tell us any dietary needs.

Yes — private, custom multi-day tours based from hotels and lodges around Zion and Bryce are available by request. See the multi-day section above or email for a quote.

Packed Adventures launches in 2027. Enquiries are open now — design your day above and we'll plan from there.
