Kayenta Trail

 

The Kayenta Trail is about one mile long and connects The Grotto (shuttle stop number 6) to the Emerald Pool trails. This is a relatively easy trail that crosses over the Virgin River by way of a foot bridge. After crossing the bridge, the trail turns left (to the right is the West Rim Trail and Angel’s Landing). The trail ascends gradually and follows the river for about .8 miles. There are amazing views of the Virgin River and surrounding mountains. You can return the way you came after reaching the Emerald Pools or continue on taking the Emerald Pools Trail to Zion Lodge (shuttle stop number 5).
