Cedar ridge is a nice view point and also a convenient turning point, if you are just on a day hike. There is even a pit toilet, but no water. If you are lucky, you can see some real cowboys coming up from Phantom Ranch on their mules.

Great for a 2-3 hr return hike from Kaibab Trailhead

The descent on the famous Kaibab Trail via the Ooh-Aah-Point to the Cedar Ridge is highly recommended.

It is an unforgettable trail and a small but breathtaking impression of the entire Kaibab Trail, which probably only very few people manage.

It is about 200 meters in altitude to the intermediate highlight Ooh-Aah-Point and about 350 meters in altitude from the trailhead to the Cedar Ridge.

This is probably not a problem for most hikers.

Plan it, because only when you immerse yourself in the canyon can you really grasp the size of this natural wonder.

If you have made it to the Cedar Ridge, you should take a short detour to the Komoot highlight "Inner Canyon view from Cedar Ridge".

You don't have a view of the Colorado from here!!!

The first picture must have been taken miles down the Kaibab Trail!!!

Jochen's statement does not fit with the Cedar Ridge.

Oh yes, there is also a smelly toilet facility on Cedar Ridge.
