Grand Canyon Village
The snow dusted canyon is quite the site to see. The breathtaking ensemble of colorful rock layers, impressive buttes and shadowed side canyons sets Grand Canyon apart. The South Rim Village is open year-round and features buildings from the early 1900s including the historic El Tovar Hotel, Mary Colter's Lookout Studio and Hopi House, Vercamp's Visitor Center and Kolb Studio. Visiting the Grand Canyon in winter offers slightly more peaceful park days compared to the warmer months. Trails are quieter and scenic drives are less congested during January and February. The cold, crisp air combined with snow atop the red and orange rock formations make for a unique experience.
