The following interpretive programs are offered
mid-March through October:
Fiery Furnace Walks
Rangers lead walks into the Fiery Furnace twice
each day. These 2.5 to 3 hour hikes are moderately
strenuous, requiring the occasional use of hands
to scramble through narrow cracks and along narrow
ledges .
Visitors are encouraged to accompany a ranger for
safety and to reduce impacts.
In order to visit the Fiery Furnace without a
ranger, visitors must obtain a permit (fee charged)
at the visitor center. In order to support the
program, fees are now charged for Fiery Furnace
walks. The cost is $10 for adults; $5 for children
6 to 12 years old and Golden Age Pass holders;
kids up to 6 years old are free. Group size is
limited, and these popular walks often fill a day
or two in advance. Sign up and pay your fee in
person at the visitor center no more than 7 days
in advance of a walk. Maximum tour size is 25 people,
10 of whom may be from a single party. Larger groups
can attend separate walks or request a special
tour by contacting the park; a minimum of four
weeks' notice is advised.
Other Guided Walks
Rangers lead easy, one-hour walks each day at
different locations throughout the park. Check
at the visitor center for more information.
Evening Programs
Join a ranger at the Devils Garden campground
amphitheater (next to Canyon Wren group campsite
and across the road from campsite #25) nightly.
Programs last about forty-five minutes. Check at
the visitor center for more information.
