Things to Know Before Visiting Zion National Park
Zion National Park is open to visitors twenty-four hours day, every day of the year. You will want to check the website because some services and facilities do close or reduce hours during parts of the year.
BUDGET TRAVEL TIP: If you plan on visiting other Utah National Parks during your Zion vacation, or any other US National Park during the year, we always recommend getting the US National Park pass.
Zion Shuttle and Parking
The Zion National Park Shuttle begins operations during the weekends starting mid-February. Around the first part of March, the shuttle runs daily between Zion Canyon and the town of Springdale.
While the shuttle is in operation, Zion Canyon is the only Zion National Park scenic drive where private vehicles are not permitted. The shuttle also runs during the Christmas holiday so check the website if you’ll be visiting Zion during that time.
When the shuttle service is not in use, Zion National Park can still experience overcrowding. When this happens, the Zion Canyon Scenic Drive will close to the public once all parking lots are full. Be prepared and make alternative arrangements if you’re planning a Zion itinerary between December and February.
It’s important to know all the rules and regulations for parking at Zion National Park! Visitors can park only in designated parking spaces and should avoid parking along roadways, on vegetation, and in a way that blocks traffic. If a parking lot is full, do not wait for a spot to open up. Instead, move on and look for parking elsewhere. Anyone who fails to park in designated spots will be subject to a fine and may have their vehicle towed.
You can also park in Springdale, just outside the park entrance. Use the free shuttle that takes you to Zion. Be aware though that you must pay for parking in Springdale and that a park entrance pass does not include town parking, and vice versa.
