Jeeping can be a memorable experience for exploring the outdoors when you crawl along the cliffs and go up steep inclines while overlooking parts of Zion. Going along jeep trails, you can reach places where you would otherwise not have been able.  You can have amazing photographic opportunities by following jeep trails which also intersect with hiking trails, allowing you to get off and do some hiking as well.

It is important to keep in mind a few safety tips before going hiking. For example, it is important to have adequate food and water. Remember to also carry first aid supplies, and to wear suitable clothing for the weather. In case you are inexperienced with jeeping, or not familiar with the area, carrying a guide will be very useful.
