Las Vegas is closer to Zion National Park than Bryce Canyon, but not by too much — the drive to Bryce Canyon National Park from Las Vegas takes about 30 minutes longer. Because Zion National Park and Bryce Canyon National Park are so close to one another, many people combine them into one longer trip, flying in and out of Las Vegas. Bryce Canyon is known for its rock towers and spires, called hoodoos, while Zion National Park is more known for the canyon, red rock landscapes, and famous hikes like The Narrows and Angel’s Landing.
