Did you know that disposable plastic bottles comprise an estimated 20% of Grand Canyon's waste stream? As a Climate Friendly Park, Grand Canyon National Park is committed to reducing greenhouse gas emissions and educating the public on ways to minimize their environmental impact. This includes efforts to reduce plastics in the park's waste stream, prevent litter along trails and walkways, and lower overall emissions. While single-serve water bottles are available for purchase throughout the park, we encourage visitors to reduce, reuse, and refill to help protect the environment.
Water Bottle Filling Stations
Water bottle filling stations are conveniently located in high-traffic areas on both rims of the park, offering an easy way to refill your water bottle. Similar to the water fountains and sinks found throughout park buildings and facilities, these stations provide free Grand Canyon spring water sourced from Roaring Springs, the park’s water supply. South Rim filling stations are located at:
North Rim filling stations are located at:

Forgot Your Water Bottle? A variety of reusable, souvenir water bottles are available at many of the park's retail outlets. Grand Canyon's "reduce, reuse, refill" initiative is a collaborative effort between the National Park Service and Grand Canyon National Park's concessioners and partners. Concessioners Delaware North Parks and Resorts; Xanterra South Rim, L.L.C.; and Aramark; as well as the park's cooperating association and fundraising partner, Grand Canyon Conservancy, have all developed product lines that provide sustainable alternatives to disposable bottles. Why Refill? Litter from disposable plastic water bottles has become a growing issue along trails and walkways in Grand Canyon National Park, contributing significantly to the trash found below the rim. By refilling a reusable water bottle, you help reduce waste and decrease the chances of litter from your water consumption along the trail. Refilling a reusable water bottle also lowers greenhouse gas emissions by reducing the need for production, packaging, and transport of disposable water bottles. Plus, Grand Canyon souvenir water bottles can be refilled with FREE Grand Canyon spring water, helping you save money while reducing your environmental impact.
