Zion National Park Parking

Although Zion National Park is the busiest from March through November, it’s suitable for year-round visits and attracts many people. Here at Parking Access, we understand how hard it is to find a good parking space. Use our guide to plan your visit, avoid crowds, pinpoint top parking lots, and discover tips for family trips to Utah. 

The Park is open 24/7, and each visitor must purchase a $20 weekly pass. Children younger than 16, military veterans, and Gold Star families enjoy free access.

All About Parking at Zion National Park

Multiple designated parking areas are available within the Park. However, due to the number of visitors, these usually fill by 8–9 AM. For this reason, you should either arrive early or park in Springdale. Read through the nitty-gritty of all parking options and fees.

Note: Be sure to park within the designated stall to avoid pricey citations.

Park in Springdale & Take a Zion Shuttle

Springdale parking for Zion visitors is obtainable at multiple locations. On-street spots for oversized vehicles are in Zone C and cost $2/hour or $24/day, while standard parking fees are below.

Street Zone Location Hourly Rate Daily Rate
The Park entrance to Shuttle Stop #4 $1 $20
B Sundance Road to Anasazi Way $1 $15
C Lion Boulevard $1 $12

December through March, these rates are 50% lower.

Off-street parking is available from 6 AM to 5 PM at Bit and Spur Lot for $5/hour or $15/day. A Zion Canyon shuttle stop will be nearby wherever you park, and shuttles run every few minutes. Click here to see the map.

Reach the Park Without a Car

Your best bet is to fly into McCarran Airport and arrange a Las Vegas Airport shuttle or rental car. Those staying at a hotel may request a hotel shuttle. Alternatively, book a shuttle to St. George and then to Springdale. When you get there, take the shuttle to the Zion Canyon Visitor Center. This option takes more time, but it’s cheaper than private transfers.
