When staying at the Best Western Abbey Inn motel, St. George, Utah’s most popular scenic attraction is Zion National Park, located only 45 minutes away. The park preserves 229 square miles of cliff-and-canyon landscape carved by millions of years of wind and water. Its most visited section, Zion Canyon, is home to its most recognizable natural landmarks, including enormous stone monoliths such as the Court of the Patriarchs, Angels Landing and The Great White Throne, quite possibly the park’s most photographed formation. Hiking trails for all ability levels provide visitors a better view of the park’s varied vegetation, waterfalls, and hanging gardens, including Weeping Rock, a ½-mile round trip hike to a rock overhang where it “rains” year round due to constant water seepage through the porous sandstone. If you are searching for the headquarters of your Zion National Park vacation, our St. George, Utah motel is an ideal choice.
