To enhance visitor experience and minimize environmental impact, Mount Rainier National Park will implement a pilot timed entry reservation system this summer. From May 24 to September 2, timed entry will be required for the Paradise Corridor accessed via the Nisqually or Stevens Canyon entrances, including Paradise, Cougar Rock, Reflection Lakes, and other notable spots. Similarly, from July 4 to September 2, the Sunrise Corridor requires timed entry through the White River entrance, encompassing Sunrise, White River, Summerland, and more. Timed entry reservations are mandatory from 7 a.m. to 3 p.m. and are valid for a single day per vehicle. Reservations can be made through www.recreation.gov or by calling 877-444-6777. Entry reservations are not required for other park areas. Visitors are encouraged to make reservations 90 days in advance or check for daily availability at 7 p.m. PDT the night before for next-day travel. Mount Rainier National Park remains open 24/7, allowing for visits outside the timed entry hours. Additional information is available on the park’s website at www.nps.gov/mora/planyourvisit/timed-entry-reservations.htm.
