About Rainbow Bridge National Monument (accessible through Glen
Canyon N.R.A.)
Public access to Rainbow Bridge is by boat across Lake Powell.
Trips to the bridge may be made in private, rental, and tour boats.
A courtesy dock is available for short-term docking while people
make the 1/2 mile (.8km) walk to the bridge. By boat, it is approximately
50 miles (80km) from Wahweap, Bullfrog, or Halls Crossing to Rainbow
Bridge. Some people backpack to Rainbow Bridge across Navajo Nation
lands. A permit from the Navajo Nation is required. You may write
to: Navajo Nation, Parks and Recreation Department, Box 308, Window
Rock, Arizona 86515.
Rainbow Bridge is the world's largest natural bridge. The span
has undoubtedly inspired people throughout time--from the neighboring
American Indian tribes who consider Rainbow Bridge sacred, to
the 300,000 people from around the world who visit it each year.
Please visit Rainbow Bridge in a spirit that honors and respects
the cultures to whom it is sacred. While Rainbow Bridge is a separate
unit of the National Park Service, it is proximate to and administered
by Glen Canyon National Recreation Area.
