Grand Canyon National Park | AZ

The Grand Canyon is one of the most popular national parks in the US and it certainly didn’t disappoint. We visited the South rim and enjoyed these incredible views. We went into the Desert View Watchtower which was a neat building with art and views of the canyon. There are several trails near this point, but unfortunately we didn’t have enough time to hike in the park during this trip. We did see elk here as we were driving through the park!

Is the Grand Canyon on your bucket list?

The Grand Canyon National Park is not only a natural wonder but also a treasure trove of history and culture. Home to diverse wildlife like elk, this UNESCO World Heritage Site attracts millions of visitors each year. The South Rim offers some of the best viewpoints, which can easily be accessed via a short drive. While hiking opportunities abound, visiting landmarks like the Desert View Watchtower provides an excellent vantage point for photography enthusiasts. In addition to its stunning vistas, the park features numerous ranger-led programs that focus on the ecology, geology, and history of the area. Planning your visit during the off-peak season can lead to a more peaceful experience, allowing you to truly immerse yourself in the tranquil beauty of the canyon. Don’t forget to explore some nearby attractions, such as the Grand Canyon Village, where you can find visitor centers, shops, and additional hiking routes. For those interested in camping, there are designated campgrounds within the park that offer a unique night under the stars experience. Whether you're looking to hike, photograph, or simply relax, Grand Canyon National Park is sure to leave a lasting impression. Make sure to check for any necessary permits and seasonal recommendations to enhance your visit!

My family and I went back in 2018 so it’s been a while but I don’t remember it being super crowded at the visitor center. Since it is a desert, even in winter, make sure you bring lots of water with you since there is no shade. 74282 Standard Entrance Passes $20.00–$35.00 Admission to Grand

how do we not talk about this national park more!?

Ok ok, I know Olympic National Park is fairly well known, but the fact that it’s not in most people’s top three national park list is an absolute CRIME! Don’t get me wrong, I love Yellowstone and The Grand Canyon, but you will never get as much biodiversity in one place as Olympic National Park.

The best spot in Grand Canyon National Park

I'm lucky enough to have been to both rims of the Grand Canyon. It may be controversial, but the north rim is my favorite. -more quiet -less crowded -greener -more rustic What do you think? Who's been to both?
