Hitch up your new or used RV and hit the road for…Arizona! Not only does Arizona have a comfortable climate at this time of year, but it’s also home to one of our favorite National Parks – the Grand Canyon! If you’re looking for a winter camping destination, why not head to Grand Canyon National Park? Learn more below!
Grand Canyon National Park
The Grand Canyon offers a breathtaking and diverse landscape, providing visitors with a range of activities to explore its beauty. There are popular viewpoints such as Mather Point, Hopi Point, and Yavapai Point for stunning panoramic views of the canyon. Browse the NPS website to check for any potential closures or explore what is most accessible this time of year.
Things to Do
Hiking and mule rides are two popular options for visitors. Explore the numerous hiking trails, ranging from easy walks along the rim to more challenging hikes into the canyon. Popular trails include Bright Angel Trail, South Kaibab Trail, and the Rim Trail. For a uniquely fun experience, head to Phantom Ranch for a mule trip – and enjoy a unique perspective by taking a mule ride down into the canyon! Check out lots of options for your visit here.
One particularly unforgettable experience is the Grand Canyon Skywalk on the Hualapai Reservation. It’s a thrilling, glass-bottomed walkway that extends over the canyon. Learn more information here.
We would also be remiss if we didn’t mention the twice-a-day performance by Mother Nature – the sunrise and sunset. Yes, it’s really everything everyone says. No, the pictures don’t do it justice. Scout your viewing spot the day before (it’s pretty popular!) and plan to get there early to enjoy the show. Make sure you bundle up – it’s pretty chilly – and take extra blankets to sit on or wrap up in, and a thermos of hot cocoa.
