We now offer ticket sales online! We strongly encourage purchasing online tickets in advance of your arrival. You will find that tickets are now sold with timed entry in order for us to better anticipate our shuttle needs to minimize lines and wait times in order to expedite your entry into the park.
After purchasing a ticket online, you should receive a confirmation email with two attachments: one attachment showing invoice/purchase information, and the other with your tickets (bar codes for each person). If you don’t see the email, please check your spam folders. If you are still unable to locate it, please contact our Ticket Office for further assistance at (855) 923-7272.
No, printing tickets is not necessary! After purchasing your ticket online, you will receive a confirmation email with a QR code. Just present this QR code to the staff person at the Norris Penrose Event Center parking area where you will receive a wrist band which will be your park entry ticket.
Yes, upon arrival to the park entrance, we have a ticket office where you can purchase tickets. However, we recommend purchasing tickets in advance so that you don’t have to wait in line to buy a ticket. With the advance purchase of tickets, you can bypass our ticket office entirely at the park and begin to enjoy your Seven Falls experience upon arrival.
We recommend a minimum of 24 hours in advance so we can properly prepare for your experience and to minimize wait times.

Yes, the shuttles and park are pet friendly. All pets must remain on a leash. Dogs are allowed on the steps and the trails. However, we do recommend ensuring a dog is comfortable going down the stairs before taking them all the way to the top, to avoid possibly having to carry them down.
Yes, the in-park tram is handicapped accessible. Please note, however, that the tram is unable to reach the base of the falls. There is an approximate 100-yard transition from the drop off point to the base of the falls. Additionally, it is approximately a 30-yard transition from the tram drop off point to the Mountain Elevator. There is an elevator available to the Eagle’s Nest viewing platform with beautiful panoramic views of the falls.
Yes, there are restrooms at the Norris Penrose Event Center (which is where the parking lot for Seven Falls is located, and from where the shuttle to the park departs). Then, once at the park, there are restroom facilities mid-way through the park and at the top of the canyon near the Seven Falls Shop. Please reference our park map for specific information.
Rain checks, refunds, or ticket changes are based on inclement weather and are only approved when the Park is closed by Management.
Visits average from 2-2.5 hours. If you choose to hike the nature trails above the falls or dine in our restaurant 1858, expect additional time within the park.
Once the shuttle bus drops you at the park entrance, it is approximately 8/10 of a mile to walk the length of the park to the base of the falls, with many points of interest along the way. Walking is highly recommended and is the best way to experience the full beauty of the canyon.
The lights on the falls come on after dark. This time will vary depending on the park’s hours of operation, the time of the year, and the time of your visit. You can also see what they look like in the evening by checking out our webcam!
