My favorite season in Kanab is definitely fall.

The closest is UtahsZion National Park, which is just about an hour northwest of the city.

My favorite park to visit would have to be Bryce Canyon.

Boca Grande Lighthouse & Shoreline, Gasparilla Island,Florida

It has a little bit of everything, from breathtaking views to amazing hikes.

Walker also recommends the Peekaboo [Peek-A-Boo] slot canyon and driving the roads of the Grand Staircase.

Permit holders can also see attractions like The Second Wave, Melody Arch, and Fatali’s Boneyard.

Each glamping tent has a California king bed and a private deck with desert views.

Theres also a communal kitchen, plenty of outdoor seating, and hammocksprimed for stargazing.

If youre craving a more elevated meal, the menu atWild Thyme Cafeis hard to top.

And finally, Walker recommendsVermillion 45andSego.
