Grand Canyon National Park welcomes almost 5 million visitors each year.  The South Rim of the Canyon is the most accessible and is open 24 hours a day, 365 days a year.  The North Rim is generally open from mid-May through mid-October and closes due to the winter storms.  As the South Rim is so busy during the summer months, parking and traffic congestion can be a problem, so the Park offers a free shuttle system in the Grand Canyon Village area to alleviate traffic.

     Grand Canyon National Park offers museums, guided tours, mule trips, backcountry hiking, river trips, ranger programs, art exhibits and a regular calendar of events and presentations throughout the year.

      Save time by purchasing your gate pass with us!  The Valle Travel Stop, located adjacent to the Grand Canyon Inn is an Official Grand Canyon National Park Pay Station.  As part of your Grand Canyon vacation, the Grand Canyon Inn is the perfect place to stay, dine, and shop.  Only 23 miles south of the Grand Canyon, our facility offers a restaurant, cocktail lounge, heated swimming pool, DirecTV satellite television, and air-conditioned rooms.  Shop in our gift shop for Grand Canyon souvenirs and Native American art & jewelry.
