Why Choose Zion Adventures®?

Find The Right Gear For Your Zion Plans

Different Zion activities require different equipment. A summer Narrows hike has different needs from a winter river hike, an e-bike ride, an overnight trip, or a self-guided technical canyon.Choose a rental category based on your activity, route, season, and group. Each detailed rental page provides information about available packages, included equipment, pricing, pickup instructions, and reservation options.

Narrows Gear Rentals

Stay warmer. Hike more comfortably. Prepare for the river.

Hiking the Narrows means traveling directly through the Virgin River over rounded, submerged, and slippery rocks. Zion Adventures® offers footwear, dry-bib, and drysuit packages selected around typical seasonal water and air conditions.

Every primary Narrows package includes:

The canyon shoes provide traction, drainage, toe protection, and ankle support. Neoprene socks help retain warmth while wet, and the walking stick provides another point of contact while crossing uneven terrain.

Choose Narrows Gear For The Conditions

Conditions, not the calendar alone, should determine what you wear.

The appropriate Narrows package depends on the water temperature, river flow, air temperature, weather, and time of year. Conditions can change quickly, so equipment that works during summer may not provide enough protection in early spring, late fall, or winter.

Footwear Package

The footwear package is commonly used during warmer months and lower-water conditions.
It includes:

Your feet will get wet, but the neoprene socks help retain warmth and reduce abrasion. The canyon shoes provide drainage, toe protection, ankle support, and traction on the rounded rocks of the Virgin River.

Starting At $35. Multi-Day Pricing Available.

Reserve A Footwear Package

Dry-Bib Package

The dry-bib package provides additional protection during cooler water and shoulder-season conditions.
It includes:

Dry bibs create a waterproof barrier around the lower body and extend upward for additional coverage. The waterproof material does not provide insulation by itself, so wear appropriate non-cotton layers underneath.

Starting At $65. Multi-Day Pricing Available.

Reserve A Dry-Bib Package

Drysuit Package

The drysuit package provides greater water protection during cold-weather Narrows hikes.
It includes:

Zion Adventures® uses custom Kokatat® drysuits designed for Narrows conditions. Wrist and ankle gaskets help keep water away from the layers worn underneath.

A drysuit creates a waterproof barrier but does not produce warmth by itself. Wear suitable synthetic or thermal layers underneath based on the expected air and water temperatures.

Starting At $65. Multi-Day And Youth Pricing Available.

Reserve A Drysuit Package

Choose Between A Wetsuit And Drysuit

Choosing between a wetsuit and drysuit depends on the canyon, season, air temperature, water temperature, time spent in the water, and specific route conditions. There is no single option that works for every trip.

WETSUIT

A wetsuit provides insulation by trapping a thin layer of water against the body and allowing body heat to warm it. It can be a practical choice when additional warmth is needed but a fully waterproof layer is unnecessary.

Slot canyons can retain cold water even during summer. Wetsuits may be suitable for warm-weather canyoneering or shorter descents in cooler conditions.

Full wetsuits use 4-millimeter neoprene through the torso and 3-millimeter neoprene in the arms and legs. A wetsuit jacket or Farmer John can add insulation when more protection is needed.

A wetsuit package may include:

Drysuit

A drysuit is designed to keep water away from the body. It may be appropriate for cooler-weather canyon descents or routes involving prolonged exposure to cold water.

A drysuit does not provide insulation by itself. Wear suitable thermal layers underneath to manage cold conditions.

Technical canyons are hard on rental drysuits. Rock, narrow walls, and repeated abrasion can affect the material. Zion Adventures® inspects and tests returned suits, and coveralls are required over rental drysuits to reduce abrasion.

Even with these precautions, a rental drysuit cannot be guaranteed to remain completely watertight during a technical canyon descent. Test the suit before committing to the route.

A technical drysuit package may include:

Combine An E-Bike With Narrows Gear

Ride an e-bike through Zion Canyon to the Temple of Sinawava, secure it at a designated rack, and continue along Riverside Walk with the equipment needed to hike the Narrows.

Standard adult e-bikes include a basket and walking-stick holder, giving you space to transport your Narrows equipment during the ride.

Warm-Weather Package
$115
Includes:
- Adult e-bike rental
- Narrows footwear package

Cold-Weather Package
$140
Includes:
- Adult e-bike rental
- Narrows dry-bib package

The combined package can simplify a day that includes both riding through Zion Canyon and hiking in the Virgin River. It works well for visitors who want greater control over their schedule, plan to begin early, or prefer not to depend entirely on the park shuttle.

Why Rent From Zion Adventures®?

Local Knowledge With Every Rental

Conditions, access, and route needs can change. Since 1996, Zion Adventures® has helped visitors determine which equipment fits their plans and what they should consider before departure.

Equipment Selected For Zion

Available equipment is chosen around conditions found in Southern Utah. Options include Narrows footwear, seasonal dry gear, e-bikes, winter hiking equipment, camping supplies, and technical gear.

Personal Fitting And Support

The right equipment must fit correctly. Staff members help with sizing, explain the equipment, and answer relevant questions before you leave.

Professionally Maintained Equipment

Rental equipment is inspected, cleaned, and maintained between uses. E-bikes are serviced by in-house mechanics, while river and technical equipment is checked before being prepared for the next customer.

Two Convenient Pickup Locations

Springdale and Virgin pickup options allow you to choose the location that best supports your itinerary and selected rental.

How Zion Equipment Rentals Work

4. Begin Your Adventure
Follow the route, permit, park-entry, and safety requirements that apply to your plans. Rental equipment does not replace route preparation, technical training, or current condition checks.

5. Return Your Equipment On Time
Return the equipment to the required location by the deadline listed with your reservation. Narrows gear is due by shop closing time.

Qualifying Narrows rentals collected in Virgin may be returned in Springdale. Top-down Narrows hikers using an early shuttle should collect their equipment on the previous evening because shuttle departures may occur before the shop opens.

Reserve Rental Equipment

1. Choose Your Equipment
Begin with the activity you plan to complete. Review the relevant rental category to compare packages, included items, pricing, seasonal recommendations, and any experience requirements.

2. Reserve In Advance
Advance reservations help Zion Adventures® prepare the correct equipment and sizes. Book early during busy travel periods or when your plans depend on a specific package or item.

Full payment is due when booking. Cancellations made more than three days before the rental receive a full refund. Cancellations made within 72 hours are non-refundable.

A weather forecast alone does not qualify a reservation for automatic cancellation. If Zion Adventures® determines that conditions are unsafe, the team will attempt to reschedule the rental or provide a comparable option. If neither is possible, the purchase will be refunded.

3. Collect And Check Your Equipment
Arrive at the Springdale or Virgin location listed in your reservation. Staff members will confirm sizes, explain the equipment, and make sure the expected components are present.

Narrows gear pickup begins when the shops open at 8:00 a.m. Previous-day pickup may be available after 3:00 p.m. when the equipment has been returned, cleaned, dried, and prepared in your size.

Previous-day pickup is not guaranteed. Reserve the equipment for 2 days when guaranteed evening pickup is important to your itinerary.

Zion Equipment Rental FAQs

Should I reserve Zion rental gear in advance?

Yes. Advance reservations are recommended during busy periods and whenever you need a particular size, package, or equipment item. Booking ahead gives the team time to prepare your rental.

Can I pick up Narrows gear the night before?

Previous-day pickup may be available after 3:00 p.m. when the equipment has been returned, cleaned, dried, and prepared in your size. Reserve the gear for 2 days when guaranteed night-before pickup is important.

Can I rent gear from the Virgin location?

Yes. The Virgin location offers Narrows equipment and hiking gear for selected routes. Qualifying Narrows rentals may be collected in Virgin and returned in Springdale, while e-bike rentals and evening returns are handled through Springdale.

What comes with a Narrows rental package?

Primary Narrows packages include canyon shoes, neoprene socks, and a walking stick. Dry-bib and drysuit packages add waterproof protection for cooler or colder conditions.

What comes with a Zion e-bike rental?

Standard adult rentals include a helmet, lock, water bottle holder, flat-repair kit, basket, and walking-stick holder. Children’s bikes and some passenger configurations may include different accessories.

Does dry Narrows gear keep me warm?

Dry bibs and drysuits create a waterproof barrier but do not provide insulation by themselves. Wear appropriate synthetic or thermal layers underneath based on the expected air and water temperatures.

Do you rent equipment for children?

Yes, but available sizes vary by equipment category. Contact Zion Adventures® before booking if your group needs children’s Narrows gear, camping equipment, or a youth e-bike.

What if I do not know which equipment I need?
