Zebra Slot Canyon

Located in Grand Staircase-Escalante National Monument, Zebra Canyon is a striking slot canyon with a unique pink, orange, and white striated appearance resembling zebra stripes. This destination is one of the most unique attractions in Southern Utah with a 5-mile hike and a rewarding otherworldly slot canyon. Be prepared for a moderately challenging trail and anticipate anywhere from a few inches of water to chest-deep water in the canyon!
