Rainbow Bridge National Monument Custom Search 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. For additional information about services and facilities connected with Rainbow Bridge, visit Glen Canyon NRA's Home Page.     CONTACTS Email - GLCA_CHVC@nps.gov Fax- 520-608-6283 Write to PO Box 1507 Page, AZ 86040-1507 Phone Visitor Information - 520-608-6404 Headquarters - 520-608-6200 TRAVEL BASICS Operating Hours, Seasons Dangling Rope Marina, the closest source of first aid, water, gas, and supplies, is open year-round.
