Zion trail maps
The free maps below are probably fine if you’re mostly visiting Zion by car and bus. However, if you’re planning to do some considerable hiking or are going backpacking, then aNational Geographic Trails Illustratedmap is helpful (it shows backcountry campsites and topographic lines). I always prefer seeing topo lines when planning out my trip; it’s easier to figure out how much I can handle each day.
This set of three Zion trail mapsshows trails and has written descriptions about hikes in three separate areas of the park. Click the image to view a full size JPG (1.2 mb) or download the PDF (2.7 mb).

Zion campground maps
This is a map of Watchman Campground(400 kb), located on the east side of the Virgin River and north of the Zion Canyon Visitor Center. This is the most popular of the two Zion National Park campgrounds.
This is a map of South Campground(300 kb), located on the west side of the Virgin River and south of the Zion Canyon Visitor Center. Although less popular, it’s still in an incredibly scenic area.

Zion geologic map
The geologic map of Zion(11.2 mb) has a large file size, but its incredible detail about the various rock types that make up Zion National Park is great to learn about the geology of Zion.
Zion backcountry wilderness map
This map shows the Zion wilderness trails and backcountry campsites(1.0 mb), including trail mileages and water sources in both Zion and Kolob canyons.Great for planning a backpacking trip!
Although the abovemap is good for planning, it’s not suitable for navigation since it doesn’t show topgraphic lines and will be useless if you’re lost. Like many other parks, the best map for general trail travel is the National Geographic Trails Illustratedmap. If you’re doing in-depth canyoneering, however, not even Nat Geo is going to be sufficient; you need USGS topographic maps and specialized canyoneering guidebooks.
Zion vegetation map
This is a vegetation map of Zion National Park(5.1 mb), showing the different types of forests and brushland found within the park boundaries. It makes a good companion to the geologic map to learn about Zion.
