Weather & Best Time to Visit in Salt Lake City

Best time to visit Salt Lake City

May-June or September-October (spring and early fall shoulder seasons). Shoulder seasons offer comfortable temperatures (65-79 F average highs), fewer crowds than peak summer or ski season, and lower accommodation rates. Ideal for outdoor hiking in the Wasatch, sightseeing at Temple Square, and attending cultural festivals. Fall through spring is also recommended by AAA for those who want to combine city visits with skiing
