The Best Places to Stay in and Around Zion National Park
The best time to visit Zion National Park
The park is open year-round, but the most popular months are from April through October when the shuttle buses are running in Zion Canyon.
If you’re interested in sightseeing and prefer cooler temperatures, spring and fall are considered the best times to visit. During these seasons, the weather is more temperate, and the park is less crowded than in the peak summer months.
For those looking to avoid crowds and don’t mind colder temperatures, winter can be a great time to visit. The park is quiet during this season, giving visitors a more peaceful experience.
On the other hand, if you don’t mind the heat and enjoy water activities like river tubing or hiking The Narrows, summer could be a good option for you. However, keep in mind that summer is also the busiest season, and some trails may be crowded.
Each season offers unique advantages, so consider your personal preferences and what you want to do in the park when planning your visit
