Your Perfect Utah Adventure — Planned by Experts

Explore the Best Hiking Trips in Utah

Utah is home to some of the most iconic hiking destinations in the Southwest — Zion and Bryce, Arches and Canyonlands. But the real magic of a guided Utah hiking trip is knowing when to visit the famous places, how to avoid the worst of the crowds, and where to find the quieter canyons, arches, slickrock trails, and hidden corners most travelers miss.


Our guides have spent decades exploring Southern Utah’s national parks and canyon country. Whether you’re drawn to the icons or looking for something farther off the beaten path, we’ll help you experience Utah with depth, confidence, and a local’s eye.

Utah experience was beyond my expectations

Awesome 5 day hiking trip with nightly hotel stays in Escalante. Our guide Bob was very interactive with us and FSG grouped us with an extremely nice couple to round our our 6 person group. Meals were great on the trail as well as with the entire group for dinners. Views in Bryce Canyon, Slot canyons, Calf Creek were exceptional in Utah. The was no question that this was well worth the trip from Michigan to see. Weather could not have been better with cool mornings and warmer as the day went. We layered up a little to start the hikes and an hour or so in we were taking that off. I will definitely choose FSG for future adventures! This was my first real hiking trip and it did not disappoint.

Awesome experience!

My hiking trip to Utah far exceeded any expectations I had. Obviously, the scenery is breathtaking. I took over 500 pictures and still feel as if I could have taken many more.


Four Seasons Guides put together a great itinerary. Our guide, Bob, did more than just lead us on a hike. His knowledge of the local geology explained why the landscape looks like it does. In addition, he gave us stories of the history of Moab, and some of the more colorful characters that called Moab home over the years and shaped its history. I’m really looking forward to my next trip with Four Seasons!

Amazing Utah Experience

This was our second time using four season guides and would use them again and again. We hiked Zion, Bryce, and Escalante with some lodge base and some camping. From start to finish our guide Karne was amazing. Hikes were perfectly planned and all camp meals were amazing. Can’t say enough good things about this company.

Utah backcountry at its best

Amazing location, amazing group, amazing guide. The whole experience was beyond expectations. We were pleasantly surprised our guide was Jeremy, who we hiked the Grand Canyon Rim to Rim hike back in 2019. Jeremy goes out of his way to take good care of every one of his customers. This time it was the Boulder Mail Trail in Utah. What a beautiful state! Backcountry hiking at its best. Mostly we had the place to ourselves. Definitely glad I took their advice and trained for this hike as this was no beginner hike.

Best Guide Company out there!

Four Season Guides is an incredible guide company, specializing in the Southwest/West portion of the U.S. I have been on multiple trips with them, and each has been a trip of a lifetime. The guides are knowledgeable, thoughtful, incredibly fun to be around - which is important when spending 5 days together :) and focused on the overall enjoyment of their guests. I have been on the Grand Canyon Rim to Rim trip as well as the Utah Boulder Mail hike. I will absolutely be back. My family and friends have decided we need an annual Four-Season Guide trip - that's how amazing they are!
