Are you planning a trip to Zion? Read the information below to get a general idea of what to expect during each season at Zion National Park.

Spring

March and April - Spring break in canyon country
Conditions
As the daylight and warmer weather return to Zion, the trees begin to grow leaves and the earliest wildflowers begin to bloom.

Daytime temperatures are warming but nights can still be cold. The daily temperature swing can be 32°F / 0°C or more. Depending on the amount of snow we received over the winter, higher elevation areas may still be inaccessible without winter gear.

Snow begins to melt and raises the level of the river so the Narrows may be closed for an extended period of time.

Park Operations
The park shuttle returns to full time use so you should plan on using the shuttle bus to access the Zion Canyon Scenic Drive.

The Human History Museum will usually open in spring, but for limited hours so check current listings. South Campground opens during this time period. In wet years, the Narrows are likely to be closed. March is spring break for many people
