    Tips

    May 7, 2019

    The Rim Trail leads along the South Rim for about 13.5 miles (22 kilometers) and offers some of the best views into the Grand Canyon. The western endpoint is Hermits Rest, and the eastern endpoint is the South Kaibab Trailhead. The trail is mainly paved, but especially in the west, there is still a narrow hiking trail very close to the edge of the canyon.
