March marks the beginning of the peak season in Genoa, drawing nature enthusiasts and outdoor adventurers eager to experience the beauty of the area. This vibrant period, extending from March to May, offers a wonderful opportunity to explore the stunning landscapes of the Mississippi River and the surrounding bluffs, superb for hiking, birdwatching, and other outdoor activities.
During March, temperatures typically range from around 5 to 12 degrees Celsius, making it a refreshing time for sightseeing and discovering the local culture. You can enjoy the burgeoning spring as flora starts to bloom, and the area becomes alive with colour, which is ideal for photography and leisurely walks through the scenic parks.
For travellers looking to save a bit on accommodation, visiting in December could be a fantastic option. While this month is quieter in terms of tourist activity, it allows for a more peaceful retreat, where you can appreciate the serene beauty of a winter landscape adorned with snow.
