🚗 Southwest National Park Road Trip Tips: Stop by Lake Powell in Page, AZ 🌊🏜️

#transportation Road-tripping through the national parks of the Southwest? Lake Powell in Page, AZ is the perfect midway oasis between red rock giants and canyon country. Here’s how to keep your trip smooth, scenic, and transportation-smart 👇 ⸻ 📍 Where Is Lake Powell / Page? Page is the ultimate road trip stopover between: ➡️ Zion National Park (2 hrs) ⬅️ Grand Canyon South Rim (2.5 hrs) ⬆️ Bryce Canyon (2.5 hrs) ⬇️ Monument Valley (2 hrs) 💡 Why stop here? • Refuel 🚘 (literally + figuratively) • Chill at Lake Powell or hike Antelope Canyon • Rest before your next big drive! ⸻ 🚗 Self-Driving = Essential There’s no public transit between national parks, so you’ll need a car or campervan. ✅ Major car rental hubs: Las Vegas, Phoenix, Salt Lake City ✅ Best route: Design a loop with Page as a midpoint between parks 🗺️ Suggested Loop: Las Vegas → Zion → Bryce → Page (Lake Powell) → Grand Canyon → back to Vegas ⸻ 🅿️ Page Travel Tips (Lake Powell Area) 🛣️ Easy highway access (US-89) 🅿️ Plenty of parking at Horseshoe Bend, Antelope Canyon tours, and Lake Powell Marina ⛽ Good place to gas up — fuel is sparse near parks like Grand Canyon or Monument Valley ⸻ 🚐 RV + Camper Van Friendly ✅ Multiple RV parks and campgrounds in Page 🌌 Great stargazing if you overnight by Lake Powell ⚠️ Parking is tight at Antelope Canyon — book a guided tour with transport included! ⸻ 🚌 Lake Powell Boat Tours = Bonus Ride! Want to break up the driving? 🌊 Take a boat tour or rent kayaks to explore the canyon walls and coves of Lake Powell 🛶 No hiking, just smooth gliding through red rock waters ⸻ 🧭 Smart National Park Transport Tips w/ a Page Stop: ✅ Plan fuel stops: few options between Zion ↔ Grand Canyon ✅ Time drives for daylight — many roads are remote with no lights ✅ Book Antelope Canyon tours ahead — you can’t self-hike it ✅ Stay overnight in Page for a more relaxed park-to-park
