1

Grand Canyon South Rim

As the audio guides play commentary based on your gps location, you can create your own itinerary along the tour route(s) to match your interests and schedule. Or you can use our trip planners for our suggestions on half, full or multi day itineraries. Some of the many highlights are listed below;

2

Grand Canyon Village

The historic heart of the Grand Canyon and location of famous lodges and businesses, including the Kolb and Lookout Studios. The Village area is very compact and we will have to park the car and explore the Rim Trail on foot, which is something not to be missed. There are many superb views from the flat trail. The log train station and the mule barn are popular sightseeing locations in the Village.

3

Williams

Considered the gateway to the Grand Canyon, the town of Williams also has one of the best preserved Route 66 experiences along its Main St with diner cafes, shopping and lodging. This is the start location for many visitors first arriving to see the Grand Canyon.

4

Chapel of the Holy dove

This tiny A-shaped Ponderosa log chapel sits along on Hwy 180 in the Coconino National Forest on the route between Flagstaff and the South Entrance. Built in 1961/62 by the Watson Family who were medical practioners in nearby Grand Canyon. The chapel remains open for all passersby for prayer or reflection, or even just a pretty photo.

5

Grand Canyon Desert View Watchtower

The highlight of the 25-mile Desert View Drive that connects the Village to the eastern entrance to the park. The tower is an architectural masterpiece by Mary Colter, in the Ancestral Puebloan style and offers impressive 100 mile views up and down the canyon on clear days. Enjoy the architecture, location and the collection of artifacts contained inside the tower.

6

Lipan Point

Lipan Point is one of the not-to-be-missed stops along Desert View Drive. Look way down to the Colorado River and you might be able to see powerful whitewater rapids. Hance Rapid is one of the most challenging along the river and are a class 7 to 8. One of the most active archeological sites in the Grand Canyon is at Unkar Delta, once home to Ancestral Puebloan people. This is one of only a few places in the South Rim where you can see The Grand Canyon Supergroup - layers of rock strata, all the way down to the Vishnu Basement Rocks, oldest at the canyon.

7

Little Colorado River Gorge

For visitors arriving from Cameron, AZ, the Little Colorado River Gorge might offer the first stop and sneak peak into what lays ahead after entering the National Park. Although, it's actually one of the largest tributary arms of the Grand Canyon, at over 3,000 feet (910 m) deep. The Navajo Tribal Park offers an overlook and picnic ground facilities for a small entrance fee.

8

Grandview Point

One of the many scenic viewpoints along Desert View Drive, but this is one you won't want to miss. Panoramic views into the Grand Canyon and glimpses of the Colorado River. Popular also as it's the location of the now dismantled Grandview Hotel. First built as a simple mining cabin and then expanded as tourism grew. The Grandview Trail follows an original Native American route, that was also used to access the copper, gold and silver mines, before the National Park was established. It's a hike that requires preparation due to its steepness, sun exposure in the summer months and ice and snow in the winter.

9

Navajo Point

The highest natural viewpoint along the South Rim, and located on Desert View Drive, you can look back to Desert View Watchtower. Definitely a worthwhile stop to make and photo to capture.

10

San Francisco Peaks

Just north of Flagstaff, as we drive to, or from, the National Park, the San Francisco Peaks are a volcanic mountain range and the highest point in the state of Arizona, rising to over 12,000 feet.

11

Tusayan Ruins and Museum

Learn about the Puebloan people through the ruins and inside the museum displays, artifacts, bookstore and staff onsite. An enjoyable addition to the frequent viewpoint stops along Desert View Drive.

12

Mather Point

For many visitors this is the very first view they will have of the massiveness of the Grand Canyon. It's a first impression that will stay with you forever. Easily accessed from a large parking area using paved all-mobilities trail. There is a large Visitor Center and cafe at the same location. It is a scenic and rewarding but flat walk to use the Rim Trail to connect between the Village and Mather Point.

13

Yavapai Point

For visitors arriving at the Grand Canyon through the South Entrance, Yavapai is often the second panoramic view they will stop to enjoy after Mather Point. You can dive deeper into the complicated geological story of the Grand Canyon at the Yavapai Museum of Geology. This combination bookstore, museum, with exhibits and visitor center is built in harmonious canyon rock to blend with the surrounds. It provides a covered viewing area with large picture windows. The three dimensional map models allow an appreciation of the scale and colored layers throughout the South Rim.

Rive sud du Grand Canyon

Au fur et à mesure que les audioguides diffusent des commentaires en fonction de votre position GPS, vous pouvez créer votre propre itinéraire le long du ou des itinéraires de la visite en fonction de vos intérêts et de votre emploi du temps. Ou vous pouvez utiliser nos planificateurs de voyage pour nos suggestions d'itinéraires d'une demi-journée, d'une journée complète ou de plusieurs jours. Certains des nombreux faits saillants sont énumérés ci-dessous;

41

Village du Grand Canyon

Le cœur historique du Grand Canyon et l'emplacement de lodges et d'entreprises célèbres, notamment les studios Kolb et Lookout. La zone du village est très compacte et nous devrons garer la voiture et explorer le Rim Trail à pied, ce qui est quelque chose à ne pas manquer. Il y a beaucoup de superbes vues depuis le sentier plat. La gare en bois rond et la grange à mulets sont des sites touristiques populaires dans le village.

42

Williams

Considérée comme la porte d'entrée du Grand Canyon, la ville de Williams possède également l'une des expériences les mieux préservées de la Route 66 le long de sa rue principale avec des cafés-restaurants, des boutiques et des hébergements. C'est le point de départ de nombreux visiteurs qui arrivent pour la première fois à voir le Grand Canyon.

43

Chapelle de la Sainte colombe

Cette petite chapelle en rondins Ponderosa en forme de A se trouve le long de l'autoroute 180 dans la forêt nationale de Coconino, sur la route entre Flagstaff et l'entrée sud. Construit en 1961/62 par la famille Watson qui étaient médecins dans le Grand Canyon voisin. La chapelle reste ouverte à tous les passants pour la prière ou la réflexion, ou même juste une jolie photo.

44

Tour de guet du Grand Canyon avec vue sur le désert

Le point culminant de la Desert View Drive de 25 miles qui relie le village à l'entrée est du parc. La tour est un chef-d'œuvre architectural de Mary Colter, dans le style Ancestral Puebloan et offre une vue impressionnante sur 100 milles de haut en bas du canyon par temps clair. Profitez de l'architecture, de l'emplacement et de la collection d'artefacts contenus à l'intérieur de la tour.

45

Pointe Lipane

Lipan Point est l'un des arrêts à ne pas manquer le long de Desert View Drive. Regardez vers le fleuve Colorado et vous pourrez peut-être voir de puissants rapides d'eau vive. Hance Rapid est l'un des plus difficiles le long de la rivière et appartient aux classes 7 à 8. L'un des sites archéologiques les plus actifs du Grand Canyon se trouve au delta d'Unkar, qui abritait autrefois le peuple Ancestral Puebloan. C'est l'un des rares endroits de la rive sud où vous pouvez voir le supergroupe du Grand Canyon - des couches de strates rocheuses, jusqu'aux roches du sous-sol de Vishnu, les plus anciennes du canyon.

46

Petite gorge du Colorado

Pour les visiteurs arrivant de Cameron, AZ, la gorge de la rivière Little Colorado pourrait offrir le premier arrêt et un aperçu de ce qui les attend après l'entrée dans le parc national. Bien qu'il s'agisse en fait de l'un des plus grands bras affluents du Grand Canyon, à plus de 3 000 pieds (910 m) de profondeur. Le Navajo Tribal Park offre un belvédère et des installations de pique-nique moyennant un petit droit d'entrée.

47

Pointe Grandview

L'un des nombreux points de vue panoramiques le long de Desert View Drive, mais c'est celui que vous ne voudrez pas manquer. Vues panoramiques sur le Grand Canyon et aperçus du fleuve Colorado. Populaire aussi car c'est l'emplacement de l'hôtel Grandview maintenant démantelé. D'abord construit comme une simple cabane minière, puis agrandi à mesure que le tourisme se développait. Le Grandview Trail suit une route amérindienne originale, qui était également utilisée pour accéder aux mines de cuivre, d'or et d'argent, avant la création du parc national. C'est une randonnée qui nécessite une préparation en raison de sa pente, de son exposition au soleil en été et de la glace et de la neige en hiver.

48

Pointe Navajo

Le point de vue naturel le plus élevé le long de la rive sud et situé sur Desert View Drive, vous pouvez regarder en arrière vers Desert View Watchtower. Certainement un arrêt intéressant à faire et une photo à capturer.

49

Sommets de San Francisco

Juste au nord de Flagstaff, alors que nous conduisons vers ou depuis le parc national, les pics de San Francisco sont une chaîne de montagnes volcaniques et le point culminant de l'état de l'Arizona, s'élevant à plus de 12 000 pieds.

50

Ruines et musée de Tusayan

Découvrez le peuple Puebloan à travers les ruines et à l'intérieur des expositions du musée, des artefacts, de la librairie et du personnel sur place. Un ajout agréable aux arrêts fréquents du point de vue le long de Desert View Drive.

51

Pointe Mather

Pour de nombreux visiteurs, c'est la toute première vue qu'ils auront de la masse du Grand Canyon. C'est une première impression qui restera avec vous pour toujours. Facilement accessible à partir d'un grand stationnement en utilisant un sentier pavé toutes mobilités. Il y a un grand centre d'accueil et un café au même endroit. C'est une promenade pittoresque et enrichissante mais plate pour utiliser le Rim Trail pour se connecter entre le village et Mather Point.

52

Pointe Yavapai

Pour les visiteurs arrivant au Grand Canyon par l'entrée sud, Yavapai est souvent la deuxième vue panoramique qu'ils s'arrêteront après Mather Point. Vous pouvez plonger plus profondément dans l'histoire géologique compliquée du Grand Canyon au musée de géologie de Yavapai. Cette librairie, musée, avec expositions et centre d'accueil est construite dans un canyon rocheux harmonieux pour se fondre dans l'environnement. Il offre une zone d'observation couverte avec de grandes baies vitrées. Les modèles cartographiques tridimensionnels permettent d'apprécier l'échelle et les couches colorées de la rive sud.

As the audio guides play commentary based on your gps location, you can create your own itinerary along the tour route(s) to match your interests and schedule. Or you can use our trip planners for our suggestions on half, full or multi day itineraries. Some of the many highlights are listed below;

87

Grand Canyon Village

The historic heart of the Grand Canyon and location of famous lodges and businesses, including the Kolb and Lookout Studios. The Village area is very compact and we will have to park the car and explore the Rim Trail on foot, which is something not to be missed. There are many superb views from the flat trail. The log train station and the mule barn are popular sightseeing locations in the Village.

88

Williams

Considered the gateway to the Grand Canyon, the town of Williams also has one of the best preserved Route 66 experiences along its Main St with diner cafes, shopping and lodging. This is the start location for many visitors first arriving to see the Grand Canyon.

89

Chapel of the Holy dove

This tiny A-shaped Ponderosa log chapel sits along on Hwy 180 in the Coconino National Forest on the route between Flagstaff and the South Entrance.

90

Grand Canyon Desert View Watchtower

The highlight of the 25-mile Desert View Drive that connects the Village to the eastern entrance to the park. The tower is an architectural masterpiece by Mary Colter, in the Ancestral Puebloan style and offers impressive 100 mile views up and down the canyon on clear days. Enjoy the architecture, location and the collection of artifacts contained inside the tower.

91

Lipan Point

Lipan Point is one of the not-to-be-missed stops along Desert View Drive. Look way down to the Colorado River and you might be able to see powerful whitewater rapids. Hance Rapid is one of the most challenging along the river and are a class 7 to 8. One of the most active archeological sites in the Grand Canyon is at Unkar Delta, once home to Ancestral Puebloan people. This is one of only a few places in the South Rim where you can see The Grand Canyon Supergroup - layers of rock strata, all the way down to the Vishnu Basement Rocks, oldest at the canyon.

92

Little Colorado River Gorge

For visitors arriving from Cameron, AZ, the Little Colorado River Gorge might offer the first stop and sneak peak into what lays ahead after entering the National Park.

The Navajo Tribal Park offers an overlook and picnic ground facilities for a small entrance fee.

93

Grandview Point

One of the many scenic viewpoints along Desert View Drive, but this is one you won't want to miss. Panoramic views into the Grand Canyon and glimpses of the Colorado River. Popular also as it's the location of the now dismantled Grandview Hotel. First built as a simple mining cabin and then expanded as tourism grew. The Grandview Trail follows an original Native American route, that was also used to access the copper, gold and silver mines, before the National Park was established. It's a hike that requires preparation due to its steepness, sun exposure in the summer months and ice and snow in the winter.
