Grand Canyon Entrance Fees, Backcountry Permits: What to Know Before You Go

Do You Need a Reservation to Enter Grand Canyon National Park?
No reservations or timed entry tickets are required to enter Grand Canyon National Park at the South Rim, North Rim, or Desert View Entrance. Simply pay your entrance fee at the gate or show your valid America the Beautiful Pass.

Tip: This does not apply to the West Rim (Skywalk area), which is not part of Grand Canyon National Park but managed by the Hualapai Tribe and requires separate entrance packages.

Grand Canyon National Park Entrance Fees

  • Private Vehicle: $35 per car, valid for 7 consecutive days.
  • Motorcycle: $30 per motorcycle.
  • Individual (on foot, bicycle, shuttle, or tour bus): $20 per person.
  • Annual Grand Canyon Park Pass: $70 (good for the Grand Canyon only).
  • America the Beautiful National Parks Annual Pass: $80 (access to all federal lands).

Free Entrance Days:

On these National Park fee-free days, your entrance fee is waived:
  • Martin Luther King Jr. Day (January)
  • First day of National Park Week (April)
  • National Park Service Birthday (August)
  • National Public Lands Day (September)
  • Veterans Day (November)

Note: Free days cover the park entrance fee only — camping, tours, or special permits still cost extra.

A backcountry permit is mandatory for certain overnight camping or off-trail activities in the park. Knowing when you need a permit can save you from fines or disappointment.

When You Need a Grand Canyon Backcountry Permit

  • Camp overnight below the rim (e.g., Bright Angel, Indian Garden, Cottonwood Campgrounds).
  • Camp anywhere outside of developed campgrounds like Mather, Desert View, or North Rim Campground.
  • Stay overnight at Tuweep Campground.
  • Camp anywhere on the North Rim between November 1 and May 14 (includes winter/ski camping).
  • Do off-river camping during a river rafting trip.
  • Camp with private stock (horses, mules) outside the standard campgrounds.

When You Don't Need a Backcountry Permit

  • Doing day hikes or nighttime “day” hikes.
  • Taking day rides with stock animals.
  • Staying overnight in:
    • Mather Campground
    • Desert View Campground
    • North Rim Campground (May 15–October 31)
    • Phantom Ranch dorms or cabins (advance reservation required through Grand Canyon Lodges)

Grand Canyon Backcountry Permit Fees

  • Permit application fee: $10 per request (non-refundable)
  • Camping below the rim: $24 per person, per night
  • Camping above the rim: $6 per person, per night

How to Apply for a Grand Canyon Backcountry Permit

  1. Start your permit request no earlier than 10 days before the first of the month, four months prior to your trip.
    Example: For a January hike, apply on August 20.
  2. Download the official Backcountry Permit Request Form from the National Park Service website.
  3. Submit by mail, fax, or in-person only — email or phone requests are not accepted.
  4. Allow at least 3 weeks for processing.

Walk-in Permits

If you miss the lottery or don’t get your permit, a limited number of last-minute permits are available daily at the South Rim and North Rim Backcountry Information Centers. You must show up in person, get on the waitlist, and be ready to claim your spot within 24 hours.

If your dream is to go whitewater rafting in the Grand Canyon, know which permit you need:

Types of River Permits:
  • 1-Day Commercial Smooth Water Trips — Half or full-day. No individual permit needed; just book with an authorized outfitter.
  • Lees Ferry to Diamond Creek (Multi-Day Trips):
  • Commercial Trips (Motor or Oar): 7 to 18 days, booked 1–2 years in advance.
  • Non-Commercial Trips: 12–25 days. Must win a spot through the NPS weighted lottery.
  • Diamond Creek to Lake Mead Trips: 2–5 day non-commercial trips, first-come, first-served (requires permit).
  • Hike-In or Hike-Out Options: Many longer trips allow you to hike in or out at Phantom Ranch to shorten trip length.
*For other permits, please refer to the Grand Canyon National Park Service website*
