Do I need reservations to enter Bryce Canyon National Park?

No advanced reservations are required to enter. Entry is fee-based and digital passes can be purchased via Recreation.gov.

Is the shuttle mandatory for access to Bryce Amphitheater during its operating months?

The shuttle is free with park admission and operates seasonally; parking for large vehicles is restricted during shuttle hours, so use the shuttle to access major viewpoints when it runs.

Can I drive my RV to Bryce Amphitheater viewpoints during shuttle operation, and where can I park my vehicle if it doesn’t fit?

Vehicles over 20 ft may face parking limits at Visitor Center and viewpoints when the shuttle is operating; options include Shuttle Station, overflow parking, campsites, and locations south of mile marker 3.

What permits do I need for backcountry trips?

Backcountry permits are mandatory for overnight trips and can be obtained at the Bryce Canyon Visitor Center.

What are the main winter travel considerations?

During winter, the main park road may close at mile 3 for snow plowing; some trails and roads are seasonally closed for safety and maintenance.
