Then Grand Canyon National Park is probably part of your route. Grand Canyon, formed by Colorado River millions of years ago isn`t one of the most popular US national parks without reason. The lenght of 277 miles (446 km), the width of 10 miles (16 km), and the depth of 1 mile (1,6 km) is sheer impressive. Imagine the moment, when the Grand Canyon unfolds beneath your feet, while the orange-brown rock formations glow in contrast to the blue sky? There is a certain expectation when it comes to viewing the world&#8217;s longest canyon with your own eyes. An expectation that can only be met when visiting Grand Canyon in winter.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div id=\"ez-toc-container\" class=\"ez-toc-v2_0_82_1 counter-hierarchy ez-toc-counter ez-toc-custom

This is far from the truth. Actually Arizona gets a lot of snow and ice on higher elevations and this is exactly where Grand Canyon is located: on 7.000 feet elevation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong><strong>Fun fact: <\/strong><\/strong>Even though the huge Saguaro cacti are Arizona&#8217;s official State Flower they only grow in the Sonoran Desert in Southern Arizona, close to the border of Mexico. Grand Canyon National Park, located in Northern Arizona &#8211; in contrast &#8211; is surrounded by dense forest and pine trees. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img  loading=\"lazy\"  decoding=\"async\"  width=\"1160\"  height=\"870\"  src=\"data:image\/png;base64,iVBORw0KGgoAAAANSUhEUgAAAAEAAAABAQMAAAAl21bKAAAAA1BMVEUAAP+KeNJXAAAAAXRSTlMAQObYZgAAAAlwSFlzAAAOxAAADsQBlSsOGwAAAApJREFUCNdjYAAAAAIAAeIhvDMAAAAASUVORK5CYII=\"  alt=\"cati at Grand Canyon National Park\"  class=\"wp-image-29232 pk-lazyload\"  data-pk-sizes=\"auto\"  data-ls-sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1160px) 100vw, 1160px\"  data-pk-src=\"https:\/\/smile4travel.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/USA-Arizona-Grand-Canyon-Nationalpark-13-1160x870.jpg\"  data-pk-srcset=\"https:\/\/smile4travel.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/USA-Arizona-Grand-Canyon-Nationalpark-13-1160x870.jpg 1160w, https:\/\/smile4travel.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/USA-Arizona-Grand-Canyon-Nationalpark-13-800x600.jpg 800w, https:\/\/smile4travel.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/USA-Arizona-Grand-Canyon-Nationalpark-13-320x240.jpg 320w, https:\/\/smile4travel.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/USA-Arizona-Grand-Canyon-Nationalpark-13-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/smile4travel.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/USA-Arizona-Grand-Canyon-Nationalpark-13-560x420.jpg 560w, https:\/\/smile4travel.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/USA-Arizona-Grand-Canyon-Nationalpark-13-1320x990.jpg 1320w, https:\/\/smile4travel.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/USA-Arizona-Grand-Canyon-Nationalpark-13.jpg 1400w\" ><figcaption>cacti don&#8217;t dominate the vegetation in Grand Canyon National Park<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center\"><strong><strong>So you might wonder about things to do and if winter really is a good time to visit Grand Canyon?<\/strong><\/strong><br><strong><strong>It absolutely is! Here is why:<\/strong><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Temperatures in Grand Canyon range between 40\u00b0F and 50\u00b0F (4\u00b0C-10\u00b0C) during the day and can drop down to 30\u00b0F and 20\u00b0F (-1\u00b0C and -16\u00b0C) during winter. That sounds low and indeed it is. But here is the great thing: At the rim it might be cold and windy even snowy, the canyon itself holds pleasant temperatures. The further down you get the milder temperatures become. So if you are up for hiking in Grand Canyon, winter might even be the better option.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img  loading=\"lazy\"  decoding=\"async\"  width=\"1160\"  height=\"773\"  src=\"data:image\/png;base64,iVBORw0KGgoAAAANSUhEUgAAAAEAAAABAQMAAAAl21bKAAAAA1BMVEUAAP+KeNJXAAAAAXRSTlMAQObYZgAAAAlwSFlzAAAOxAAADsQBlSsOGwAAAApJREFUCNdjYAAAAAIAAeIhvDMAAAAASUVORK5CYII=\"  alt=\"clear skies at Grand Canyon National Park in winter\"  class=\"wp-image-29216 pk-lazyload\"  data-pk-sizes=\"auto\"  data-ls-sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1160px) 100vw, 1160px\"  data-pk-src=\"https:\/\/smile4travel.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/USA-Arizona-Grand-Canyon-Nationalpark-5-1160x773.jpg\"  data-pk-srcset=\"https:\/\/smile4travel.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/USA-Arizona-Grand-Canyon-Nationalpark-5-1160x773.jpg 1160w, https:\/\/smile4travel.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/USA-Arizona-Grand-Canyon-Nationalpark-5-800x533.jpg 800w, https:\/\/smile4travel.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/USA-Arizona-Grand-Canyon-Nationalpark-5-320x213.jpg 320w, https:\/\/smile4travel.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/USA-Arizona-Grand-Canyon-Nationalpark-5-560x373.jpg 560w, https:\/\/smile4travel.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/USA-Arizona-Grand-Canyon-Nationalpark-5-1320x880.jpg 1320w, https:\/\/smile4travel.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/USA-Arizona-Grand-Canyon-Nationalpark-5.jpg 1400w\" ><figcaption>clear skies at Grand Canyon National Park in winter<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Keep in mind:<\/strong> During summer Grand Canyon heats up and often exceeds 100\u00b0F (38\u00b0C). The combination of high temperatures and steep hiking trails can lead to uncomfortable and even dangerous situations. Especially if you aren&#8217;t used to extreme conditions while hiking and planning to go down all the way into the canyon to the Colorado River. Thanks to the crisp air winter is the season with the clearest skies, which means better chances of great views of the entire canyon.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"2-enjoy-every-sunrise-sunset-and-golden-hour\"><\/span><strong>#2 <strong>Enjoy every sunrise, sunset and golden hour<\/strong><\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>As winter days are short you can easily head for sunrise AND sunset without lacking sleep.

Accommodation within the national park can be booked out a year in advance for peak season. So you want to make sure to plan ahead. If you cannot land a place to stay at any of the lodges inside the national park or it&#8217;s too expensive, the town of Tusayan is a great alternative. Located 6.7 miles (10,8 km) outside of the park it&#8217;s only a 15 minutes drive to the Grand Canyon Visitor Center. You cannot get closer to the park, if you are not into camping.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong><strong>And guess what: <\/strong><\/strong>Besides the fact that it&#8217;s much easier to find accommodation closeby Grand Canyon NP in winter thanks to the less visitors in general, hotels around and lodging in the park is much more affordable in winter.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"travel-tips-grand-canyon-national-park\"><\/span><strong><strong>Travel tips Grand Canyon National Park<\/strong><\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"grand-canyon-national-park-winter-hours\"><\/span><strong><strong>Grand Canyon National Park winter hours<\/strong><\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>While Grand Ganyon is generally open in winter, only the South Rim and Grand Canyon West (including the Skywalk outside the national park and managed by the Hualapai Tribe) are accessible year round.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong><strong>North Rim<\/strong>: closed for the winter season between mid October and mid May<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>South Rim including Grand Canyon Village and Desert View (East Entrance) is open 24 hrs, year-round<\/strong> (East Entrance is currently closed.
