We’re open! National Parks and Monuments in Coconino County welcome visitors

It’s the best time of year to explore North­ern Arizona. The tem­peratures are cool, the leaves are chang­ing and all National Parks and Monuments including Grand Can­yon, Glen Canyon & Lake Powell, Horse­shoe Bend, Sunset Crater Walnut Canyon and Wupatiki are open for visitors.

These destinations are the economic en­gine for gateway com­munities like Flag­staff, Fredonia, Page, Sedona, Tuba City, Tusayan and Williams who have also been hit hard this year by the White Sage and Dragon Bravo Fires.


“These special plac­es have an array of restaurants, shops, lodging and attrac­tions that complete the Grand Canyon experi­ence for many visitors,” said, Patrice Horst­man, Coconino County District 1 Supervisor and Chair of the Board. “From Williams, an old west town along His­toric Route 66, to Page, where slot canyons and lakes meet dark skies, northern Coconino County is the perfect fall destination.”

Visitors are encour­aged to “know before you go” and check the online visit plan­ner for information about what services are available during the federal govern­ment shutdown. For example, information about Grand Canyon National Park is avail­able at nps.gov/grca/planyourvisit/grand-canyon-national-park-public-health-update.htm


Events are happen­ing across Coconino County throughout the month of October.
