The Grand Canyon is largely contained within the Grand Canyon National Park, one of the first national parks in the United States.

There is a Grand Canyon-Parashant National Monument located on the northern edge of the Grand Canyon National Park. This Monument is co-managed by the National Park Service and the Bureau of Land Management.
