GETTING HERE. the A-Frame is located 20 miles from Zion National Park south entrance which is the main Zion entrance, and 9 miles from the East entrance to Zion and is within the Zion Ponderosa Resort on a dirt road. We recommend that you drive a 4-wheel drive or AWD vehicle, if it rains the roads can be muddy & difficult to drive in wet conditions.
GROCERIES/GAS. Since the A-Frame is located off of the beaten path, but the closest rental property to some of the most popular trailheads, be sure to fill your gas tank and stop at the grocery store before heading to the cabin. There is a small convenience store, restaurant and food truck, located at Zion Ponderosa Resort.
PARKING for the A-Frame is located just off of the dirt road. Be prepared to walk on slightly uneven terrain into the A-Frame cabin approximately 300 ft up and down hill.
