Three of the country\u2019s busiest national parks<\/a> will no longer require advance reservations during peak seasons this year.<\/p>\n

The National Park Service announced this month that Arches, Glacier and Yosemite national parks are removing timed-entry systems that had been used in recent summers to manage heavy crowds<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Yosemite also will not require reservations for its popular “firefall” viewing period this season.<\/p>\n

Timed-entry systems were introduced in recent years to limit the number of visitors entering parks at one time, particularly during busy summer months, the park service noted.<\/p>\n

“Our national parks belong to the American people, and our priority is keeping them open and accessible,” said\u00a0Kevin Lilly,\u00a0acting assistant secretary for\u00a0Fish, Wildlife and\u00a0Parks, in a news release.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Lilly said the agency is expanding access where conditions allow while continuing to use targeted tools to protect visitor safety<\/a> and park resources.<\/p>\n

At Arches National Park, officials confirmed that a timed-entry reservation system will not be used in 2026.<\/p>\n

Visitors are encouraged to arrive early, stay flexible and explore less-crowded areas if popular sites fill up. Arches is also an international dark sky park, and after-hours visits are encouraged.<\/p>\n

Glacier National Park<\/a> will also eliminate its park-wide vehicle reservation requirement this summer.<\/p>\n

However, the park will continue managing congestion in high-demand areas such as Going-to-the-Sun Road and Logan Pass.<\/p>\n

Temporary vehicle diversions may be used if safety limits are reached.<\/p>\n

Yosemite National Park will not require advance reservations<\/a> in 2026, including during the February and March firefall period.<\/p>\n

Instead, the park will rely on real-time traffic controls, seasonal staffing increases and temporary parking management if lots reach capacity.<\/p>\n

Rocky Mountain National Park<\/a> will continue its timed-entry reservation system from late May through mid-October.<\/p>\n

“The tailored approaches reflect each park\u2019s unique infrastructure, visitation demand and coordination with state and local partners,” the agency said.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
