Hiking Along the Rim - You will want to dress for the season when hiking along the rim of the Grand Canyon, though you can expect relatively mild temperatures year round. Regardless of the season, be prepared with sturdy hiking shoes and sun protection.
Hiking at the Base - The base of the Grand Canyon typically has more intense temperatures, meaning it gets hotter in the summer and colder in the winter. Be sure to dress for the season by bringing plenty of layers, a swimsuit, sun protection, and a water bottle!
River Rafting/Canoeing - If you’re planning to explore the river at the base of the canyon, don’t forget to pack a swimsuit, swimsuit cover up, sunscreen, sunglasses, and a quick dry towel. Wear what you’re comfortable in and bring clothing that can withstand your chosen activity.
Donkey and Horseback Riding - For these activities, it’s best to bring long pants and sturdy shoes that won’t fall off; some places may even require you to wear closed-toe shoes. As always, come prepared with layers to adapt to the weather, and consider bringing a sun hat or baseball cap as well.
