If I’ll primarily be doing scenic drives and short day hikes, how long do I need to see each park?
The bare minimum amount of time is as follows. Add at least another day to make it a relaxing trip. Arches – 2 days Bryce Canyon – 2 days Canyonlands (Island in the Sky District) – 1 day Canyonlands (Needles District) – 1 day Capitol Reef – 1 day Zion – 2 days If you are only going to drive the scenic drives, you will only need one day for each park. You will, however, miss a lot of what these parks have to offer.
