Plan Around Pets

Use this detail page to confirm that the stop is worth it, then carry that decision into a trip draft while the park context is still fresh.
Pets Details
Leashed, well-behaved pets are welcome in the developed areas of Capitol Reef National Park. Pets are allowed along paved and dirt roadways, in the picnic area, in the orchards when open, and in the campgrounds. Pets are not allowed on hiking trails, in public buildings, or in the backcountry. [Service animals](http://www.ada.gov/service_animals_2010.htm) are permitted everywhere at Capitol Reef. Pets must be restrained on a leash 6 feet or less in length. There are no kennels in the park, and pets cannot be left unattended in the campground. There are kennels offering boarding in the surrounding communities. If you do bring a dog, please consider your animal's safety. Temperatures inside a car can rise quickly, even on cool days. If you are leaving your pet in the car, crack the windows as much as possible and leave water to drink. Do not leave your pet in the car at all if temperatures are above 68 degrees.
