Normally very heavily trafficked we were lucky to have the trail to ourselves this chilly December 2021 morning.

Named after the Paiute word for "bubbling water," the Pa'rus Trail is one of the most accessible trails along the Virgin River in Zion National Park.

A paved trail that follows the Virgin River from the South Campground to Canyon Junction. This trail is handicap accessible, but wheelchairs may need assistance. Trail side exhibits. This is the only trail in Zion National Park that allows both pets (on a leash up to 6 feet) and bicycles. You can access this trail from the Museum (Shuttle Stop #2) by using a short connector trail that is not designed for wheelchairs and not approved for bikes or pets. Restrooms and water filling stations are available at the Visitor Center.
