Operating Hours & Seasons

Although administered by the National Park Service, the Trail is not like a typical national park with borders. Rather, it is an historic "road" or route used by hundreds of thousands of emigrants between the mid 1840s and early 1870s as they made their way west to begin a new life or to seek their fortune.

There are many historic sites, museums, and parks (federal, state, and local) along the Mormon Pioneer National Historic Trail.

Operating hours will vary from site to site. We recommend contacting the individual sites for specific information.
