Fall in Zion is one of the best times of the year. The temperature becomes... less hot (maybe not quite cold) and the foliage changes into bold bright colors. Zion is home to several plants that change their hue, including aspen and maple trees. Picture gazing at a golden aspen tree, smelling the earthy scent and hearing the leaves quake in the crisp breeze. Definitely a highlight to anyone’s visit. These plants are breathtaking. You can help keep them that way by staying on trails and leaving vegetation untouched. Help us preserve these views and experiences for other people, too.
