Overview COMMERCIAL TOUR GROUPS ARE NOT ALLOWED AT TUSAYAN-MONTANE CAMPGROUND Commercial operators MUST obtain a special use permit to operate on National Forest System lands, including Tusayan-Montane Campground. Due to high public demand, Kaibab National Forest will not be issuing any special use permits for Tusayan-Montane Campground until further notice. Therefore, no commercial tour groups are allowed at Tusayan-Montane Campground. All violators will be removed from the campground immediately and given a fine for violating the Code of Federal Regulations. Perhaps the biggest draw to Tusayan-Montane Campground in northern Arizona is its proximity to the South Rim of Grand Canyon National Park. Located just 4 miles south of the park entrance in beautiful Kaibab National Forest, Tusayan-Montane is a quiet, peaceful campground that generally has open camping sites. A nature trail weaves its way through the pine forest, and many more hiking opportunities are within a short drive. The facility can accommodate individual and family visitors, as well as large groups up to 75 people.
