Camping
This page covers the camping possibilities within Bryce Canyon National Park in Utah.
Backcountry Camping
Bryce Canyon's backcountry is a primitive area and managed according to regulations that protect its wilderness values. Backcountry camping is allowed on a limited basis and only at designated campsites. A $5.00 backcountry permit is required. Permits are issued at the Visitor Center from 8:00 a.m. until two hours before sunset.
Campfires are not permitted in the backcountry. Water sources are unreliable and are not maintained or tested for bacterial contamination or heavy metals. It is recommended that each person carry at least one gallon of water from an approved drinking source for each day they are in the backcountry.
