On our Best Time to Visit score April rates 48/100 ("Fair"). Our recommended month is June: pleasant weather with noticeably thinner crowds (shoulder season).

The daily average of about 54°F is a comfortable range for hiking and being outdoors all day. These figures are 1991–2020 NOAA climate normals from the nearest station, about 3 miles from the park.

Because June, July and August together draw about 26% of annual visitors, choosing April instead steps outside that summer crush — the single biggest lever on how crowded the park feels.

Park-wide, 2024 drew 25,086 recreation visits, up 26.1% from 19,892 in 2023.

Across the past decade overall visitation has eased about 23.7%, so April may feel a touch quieter than it once did.
