Havasu Falls Weather

Every season showcases a different aspect of Havasu Canyon’s beauty. The best weather at Havasu is found between March and November, and spring and fall are ideal if you are hiking in and out. The waterfall’s cold water feels the best in the heat of the Arizona summer sun, while winter trips offer seclusion from crowds. There is almost a half mile of vertical elevation change between the trailhead at Hualapai Hilltop (5200 ft above sea level) and the canyon floor (2800 ft above sea level). The water maintains a relatively constant 70 degrees Fahrenheit throughout the year.
