Travel Guide To Capitol Reef National Park
This is a guide on how to have an epic adventure at Capitol Reef National Park. This guide is meant for people of all abilities. When I say people of all abilities I mean those with disabilities, those with physical or mental limitations, and those who don’t have any limitations at all. I like to find hikes and activities that accommodate everyone.
When to visit
Peak season
Spring and Fall are the best times to visit this beautiful park, but the peak of the season when most people visit is in the summertime. I would not recommend going to this park in June, July or August. It does get very hot but also it just gets very crowded. In the spring I recommend going after March 14 because of the orchards and delicious pies in Fruita which is located right in the middle of the park.
Off Season
The off season starts at the end of October until about March. I’ve been to Capitol Reef at the beginning of March and the beginning of September. It was still a little cold at night to go camping during March because it can be so unpredictable in Utah, but it was in the 50s during the day and the sunshine made it a perfect day. I would always be prepared for any kind of weather when visiting in spring and fall because it is Utah.
