Zion National Park has announced the lifting of Stage 2 fire restrictions as of 12:01 a.m. on Friday, August 29, 2025. The park will now revert to its standard year-round fire restrictions, which are consistently enforced across the park to ensure the safety of visitors, park resources, and nearby communities.
The Stage 2 fire restrictions were an elevated level of precautionary measures, which have now been rescinded. The year-round fire restrictions that are being resumed are a part of the park’s standard fire safety protocol.
The purpose of these ongoing restrictions is to protect all who come into contact with the park. This includes not only the visitors but also the diverse wildlife, vegetation, and other natural resources within the park’s boundaries, as well as the communities surrounding the area. The National Park Service is committed to maintaining a safe and enjoyable environment for all.
