Keyhole Canyon in Zion NP

Keyhole Canyon is on route 9 west east of Zion. Coming from west drive past the entrance road to the park and continue up hill, through one long tunnel and a short one. A little further up is a parking spot for about 4-5 cars. That is as close as you can get to the Keyhole Canyon, it is on the north side of the road. Coming from east on route 9 drive trough the park entrance. The location of the place to park is 37°13'28.488"N -  112°54'9.264"W, if you have a GPS.

Below is a picture of the parking space, a map of the location and a satellite map of the location.



The Keyhole Canyon starts like 100 yards from the road, see the red mark on the satellite map. 
You should walk into the canyon on the right side and when you see a tree stuck down in the canyon, step down and walk at the bottom of the canyon.



From here on you will have a spectacular walk as far as you feel comfortable going, the walls are in places leaning over you. Below are pictures I took from my walk in the canyon.
