Government Shutdown Update
During the partial government shutdown, Grand Canyon National Park will remain open to visitors. As of January 11, 2019, Federal Land and Recreation Enhancement funds have reopened the South Rim and Desert View entrance stations for visitor information and travel safety details and will continue to provide the services for which the State of Arizona donated funding. Grand Canyon Conservancy park staff is also trained and available to help answer questions and direct visitors throughout the park.

The Field Institute has offered me a fabulous venue for back country hiking, exploring, and learning about the canyon’s majestic beauty, amazing geology, and human history. It has enhanced my experience with the canyon and provided an opportunity to meet new friends.
