Zion National Park's Hidden Canyon Trail To Be Closed This Summer

Share

Repairs to retaining walls will necessitate that the Hidden Canyon Trail in Zion National Park in Utah be closed this summer.

Beginning June 6, the park's trail crew will begin making the repairs. The work should be done in time to reopen the trail in early September.

Zion’s Hidden Canyon Trail, first built in 1928, allows visitors to reach a “hanging canyon” between Cable Mountain and The Great White Throne. Over the years, several retaining walls have been damaged by both flash floods and natural seeps.

This project is funded by the Federal Lands Recreation Enhancement Act Funding Program, which uses funds collected from the park entrance and use fees to complete park maintenance projects, and public service programs.
