Grand Canyon weather varies from rim to rim. You'll notice that the average temperature at the Grand Canyon has anywhere from a 15-20°F (11ºC) degree difference between the top of the Grand Canyon and the inner/lower Grand Canyon. Staying hydrated, bringing shade, and layering clothing for a wide range of temperatures is key to experiencing the Canyon safely. See current and weekly forecasts as well as seasonal weather tips for each rim below!
TIP: This is the most popular rim to visit and is home to the Grand Canyon Village. The south rim enjoys moderate temperatures, and can be accessed year-round. The South Rim does get some snow in the winter, which often makes for a very special (and less crowded) time of year to see the Grand Canyon.
TIP: This is the rim located closest to Las Vegas, is the warmest year-round, and features the Grand Canyon Skywalk. Expect dry, hot temperatures on the West Rim during the summer, so stay appropriately protected from the sun and hydrated to make the most of your visit.
TIP: The North Rim is the remote area of the canyon and gets quite a bit of snow in the winter and is only open seasonally (May 15 - October 15). Expect cooler temperatures year-round.

Briar Patch Inn is the #1 Ranked B&B in AZ since 2011 and has received Trip Advisor's Certificate of Excellence
The Briar Patch Inn features 19 cabins situated on 9 lush acres in Oak Creek Canyon, just 3 miles north of Sedona. Each individual cabin is dressed in distinctly different southwestern decor. The lush grounds - home to wildlife, birds, and two resident sheep - showcase rambling walking paths, canyon oaks, giant pines, and sycamores, all providing the perfect setting to nurture your relationship with nature. Healthy, bountiful, homemade breakfasts are offered by the creek in spring and summer and by the lodge fireplaces in fall and winter. An attentive, longtime staff strives to provide a quality of fine service that is the hallmark of this "magical" sanctuary. A Fodor's Choice and a Frommer's favorite.
