Public WiFi is available.
Free, public WiFi is available during operating hours at the Zion Canyon Visitor Center and the Human History Museum. Cell service is generally available at park entrances and becomes patchy in the interior where there are large areas of no cell service. This means that hikers on many park trails will not have cell service. Your group should talk about a plan to find each other if you get separated. In an emergency where you do not have cell service, find a shuttle driver or a park ranger. |
