Traffic & Travel Tips

During the summer months, especially July and August, the Park Loop Road and parking lots along the Park Loop Road and at carriage road entrances can be quite crowded. Parking is permitted only in designated (posted) areas, parking lots, and established roadside pullouts.

To avoid the crowds and parking issues, you can ride fare-free Island Explorer buses to many park destinations.
