For 2026 seasonal lotteries, apply February 13–25 for March 1–May 31 hikes; April 1–20 for June 1–August 31; July 1–20 for September 1–November 30; and October 1–20, 2026 for December 1, 2026–February 28, 2027. For a last-minute hike, submit the day-before lottery application between 12:01 a.m. and 3:00 p.m. Mountain Time the day before; results arrive by 4:00 p.m. Apply with several ranked dates/times in the seasonal lottery.

Free entry: Children age 15 and under enter Zion National Park free when entering on foot or by bicycle. Angels Landing’s chained ridge still requires a permit.

Sold out? Public Angels Landing permits are lotteries rather than first-come sales. If unsuccessful in the seasonal lottery, enter the day-before lottery the day before your planned hike. If no permit is awarded, hike to Scout Lookout (no Angels Landing permit required) or continue on the West Rim Trail. Do not buy or accept a public permit from another person: permits are non-transferable and ranger ID checks are routine.

Permits & reservations

For the final chained ridge beyond Scout Lookout, obtain an Angels Landing permit through Recreation.gov. For planned trips, enter the seasonal lottery and rank several acceptable dates and start times; the application costs US$6 for up to six people, with a US$3-per-person fee if awarded. For a last-minute trip, enter the day-before lottery on Recreation.gov between 12:01 a.m. and 3:00 p.m. Mountain Time the day before hiking; notifications arrive by 4:00 p.m. Download or print the permit, and carry photo ID—the named permit holder must hike with the group. If unsuccessful, hike to Scout Lookout or continue on the West Rim Trail; do not use a transferred permit. Park admission is separate from the hike permit.
