    Tips

    October 1, 2019

    Impressive view into the depths of the Grand Canyon. There is also a bench where you can enjoy the canyon a little longer. You can reach The Abyss either by hiking the Rim Trail or by taking the shuttle bus from or to Hermits Rest. If you are okay with heights, take the dirt trail on the very edge of the Rim instead of the Greenway Trail which is paved.
