Service Animals

Service animals are allowed anywhere that individuals are allowed in the park. NPS policy defines a service animal as a dog that has been individually trained to do work or perform tasks for the benefit of an individual with a disability, including a physical, sensory, psychiatric, intellectual, or other mental disability. The tasks performed by the animal must be directly related to the person’s disability.

More information about the National Park Service service animal policy is available on the Service Animals in National Parks webpage.
