To hike Angels Landing in Zion National Park, you must obtain a permit through a lottery system managed by the National Park Service. Permits are required year-round and can be acquired via two methods:

1. Seasonal Lottery: Apply during quarterly application periods for hikes planned in upcoming months. Specific dates and application details are available on the National Park Service website.

2. Day-Before Lottery: For spontaneous plans, apply the day before your intended hike. This lottery opens daily at 12:01 a.m. and closes at 3 p.m. Mountain Time, with results announced by 4 p.m.

Applications are submitted through Recreation.gov, where you'll find comprehensive information on application periods, fees, and permit availability. It's essential to plan ahead, as permits are limited and demand is high.
