You will travel through a small suburb of Parowan Utah and drive across town until you come to a small pass or “gap” – a unique geological feature that opens wide enough to allow one road to go through it. You will see ancient Native American petroglyphs and even a few dinosaur tracks in the area.

The Riverside Walk is a wonderful stroll up the canyon past cottonwood trees and along the bubbling Virgin River. You can expect a gentle walk along a paved path with gentle inclines now and again. Along with the plethora of squirrels and tourists, there are plenty of hanging gardens decorating the canyon walls on this hike. Interestingly, along this hike you'll also encounter Zion's swamp alongside the trail - an actual swamp created by the water which trickles out of the Navajo Sandstone. This hike is sometimes called the "Gateway to the Narrows" because where the River Walk ends, the canyon walls narrow out, and the Zion Narrows trail begins. You can access this trail by taking the shuttle to the farthest stop up the canyon, and there are many places along the way where you can take a break and play in the river. At the end of this walk, there is a great place to have lunch and splash in the water during the hot summer months.

Sparkle Mountain, Glitter Mountain, the Glitter Pit
an old mining site where they would mine for gypsum. We refer to this as the Old Gypsum Mine, but it has many names. One of which is Sparkle Mountain. Sparkle Mountain is a fitting name because as you approach the old mine, in the sunlight the gypsum sparkles and sparkles. This is a great outing for the family on a random afternoon. This is also a great trip for cub scouts!
Directions to the mine
The mine is easily accessible and four-wheel drive is not required. Driving time was about 20 to 25 minutes from St. George.
The exact GPS location of this mine is: N 36 58.715 W 113 27.832
