Guests of Bumbleberry Inn enjoy complimentary parking, and with a shuttle stop at the top of the property, and only 1 mile from the park entrance, you can park your car and forget it for the remainder of your stay when visiting the main canyon (shuttle operates seasonally). For those wanting to park at the Visitor Center, parking often fills up by 9am. The Greater Zion App can provide helpful information on parking availability and other visitor information. Paid parking is also available throughout the town of Springdale (for those not staying in town, or unable to get parking at the Visitor Center).
Angels Landing Permits
Starting April 1st 2022, a permit is required to hike THE CHAINS PORTION of Angels Landing. Those hiking from the Grotto to Scout Lookout DO NOT need a permit. Permits are issued through a lottery system. There is a seasonal lottery, and a day-before lottery. Lottery applications are $6 and are non-refundable. If you are selected in the lottery, there is a fee of $3 per person. Lottery entries can be made at Recreation.Gov.
Zion/Springdale Shuttle System
There are two shuttle routes: one that runs throughout Springdale and stops at the Zion Visitor Center, and one that runs from the Zion Visitor Center up the Scenic Drive (not accessible to cars when the shuttle is operational). All shuttles are free and run frequently. The shuttle schedule can be found on the button below.
