Work is to begin next month to rehabilitate the visitor center at Capitol Reef National Park in Utah, with completion expected late next spring.

The visitor center will undergo building rehabilitation followed by the fabrication and installation of new interpretive and informational exhibits. The newly rehabilitated visitor center restrooms will open to the public on September 2, and will remain open during building rehabilitation. 

A temporary visitor center and park store building will be installed adjacent to the current visitor center parking lot. While operations will continue mostly as normal, there will be occasional delays and temporary closures of parking lots and buildings to accommodate construction. You can check the park website for updates.

These improvements are being financed primarily by recreation fee dollars. To learn more about recreation fee dollars at Capitol Reef, you can explore this website.
