December signals the beginning of a quieter time in the park with fewer visitors
and increased opportunities for solitude. Due to decreased visitation, some
services will be reduced or ended for the winter season, announced
Superintendent Jock Whitworth.
The voluntary shuttle service that provides transportation to the Zion Canyon
Scenic Drive on weekends in November has ended operations for the season. The
Zion Canyon Shuttle and the Springdale Shuttle will resume regular service on
April 1, 2012. For visitors interested in spending the night in the park this
winter, the Watchman Campground and Zion Lodge are open year-round.
During a trip, the public is encouraged to visit the Zion Canyon Visitor Center
for information on park activities and trail conditions. This facility is
staffed from 8:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. daily. The Kolob Canyons Visitor Center is
open from 8:00 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. daily through December. Beginning January 1,
operating hours will be reduced to 9:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. Both visitor centers
are closed on December 25.
