Lower Emerald Pool Trail closes for repairs
Zion National Park will close Lower Emerald Pool Trail Mondays through Thursdays and reopen Fridays through Sundays for the next few weeks starting Oct. 21. A full closure for major trail repairs will commence on Lower Emerald Pool Trail in November lasting until spring 2020 and will remain closed during the upcoming holiday season.
Middle Emerald Pool Trail is situated above Lower Emerald Pool Trail and will connect hikers to the Sand Bench Trail and Upper Emerald Pool Trail when reopened. This moderate trail has been closed since January 2011. The work on Middle and Lower Emerald Pools Trails are not connected to recent rockslides in the park.
Upper Emerald Pool Trail will remain accessible from the Kayenta Trail, which begins from Shuttle Stop 6, The Grotto.
For up-to-date trail information, stop by the visitor centers or visit nps.gov/zion/index.htm.
