Red Rock Grandeur: The Mighty 5 & Beyond
A comprehensive loop through Utah's iconic national parks, starting and ending in the vibrant city of Las Vegas.
Route: Las Vegas → Zion → Bryce Canyon → Torrey → Moab → Monticello → Beaver → Las Vegas
I've expanded your journey to 8 days by deepening the experience in the heart of Utah. The biggest change is breaking up that grueling 12-hour final drive and giving you a dedicated day for the "Needles" district of Canyonlands—a place most people skip but everyone should see.

Money Savers
- Buy the "America the Beautiful" National Park Pass ($80) at the first gate in Zion; it covers all 5 parks and pays for itself by day 3.
