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.

Южный край Гранд-Каньона

Поскольку аудиогиды воспроизводят комментарии в зависимости от вашего местоположения GPS, вы можете создать свой собственный маршрут по маршруту (маршрутам) тура, который соответствует вашим интересам и расписанию. Или вы можете воспользоваться нашими планировщиками поездок, чтобы получить предложения по полудневным, полным или многодневным маршрутам. Некоторые из многих основных моментов перечислены ниже;

41

Деревня Гранд-Каньон

Историческое сердце Гранд-Каньона и местонахождение известных домиков и предприятий, в том числе студии Kolb и Lookout Studios. Район деревни очень компактный, и нам придется припарковать машину и пройтись по Rim Trail пешком, что нельзя пропустить. С плоской тропы открывается много прекрасных видов. Станция бревенчатого поезда и сарай для мулов являются популярными достопримечательностями деревни.

42

Уильямс

Считающийся воротами в Гранд-Каньон, город Уильямс также имеет один из наиболее хорошо сохранившихся маршрутов Route 66 вдоль главной улицы с кафе-закусочными, магазинами и жильем. Это отправная точка для многих посетителей, впервые прибывающих, чтобы увидеть Гранд-Каньон.

43

Часовня Святого Голубя

Эта крошечная бревенчатая часовня из пондерозы в форме буквы А расположена на шоссе 180 в Национальном лесу Коконино, на пути между Флагстаффом и Южным входом. Построен в 1961–1962 годах семьей Уотсонов, которые были практикующими врачами в соседнем Гранд-Каньоне. Часовня остается открытой для всех прохожих для молитвы, размышлений или даже просто красивой фотографии.

44

Сторожевая башня с видом на пустыню Гранд-Каньона

Изюминкой 25-мильной дороги Desert View Drive, которая соединяет деревню с восточным входом в парк. Башня является архитектурным шедевром Мэри Колтер в стиле предков пуэбло, и в ясные дни открывается впечатляющий вид на каньон на 100 миль вверх и вниз. Наслаждайтесь архитектурой, местоположением и коллекцией артефактов, содержащихся внутри башни.

45

Липан Пойнт

Липан-Пойнт — одна из остановок вдоль Дезерт-Вью-Драйв, которую нельзя пропустить. Посмотрите вниз на реку Колорадо, и вы сможете увидеть мощные пороги бурной воды. Ханс-Рапид является одним из самых сложных на реке и относится к классу от 7 до 8. Один из самых активных археологических памятников в Гранд-Каньоне находится в дельте Ункара, где когда-то жили предки пуэблоанцев. Это одно из немногих мест в Южном крае, где вы можете увидеть супергруппу Гранд-Каньона - слои горных пород, вплоть до Скал фундамента Вишну, самых старых в каньоне.

46

Ущелье реки Маленькое Колорадо

Для посетителей, прибывающих из Кэмерона, штат Аризона, ущелье реки Литтл-Колорадо может стать первой остановкой и заглянуть в то, что ждет их впереди после входа в национальный парк. Хотя на самом деле это один из крупнейших притоков Гранд-Каньона, его глубина составляет более 3000 футов (910 м). Племенной парк навахо предлагает смотровую площадку и площадки для пикника за небольшую плату за вход.

47

Грандвью-Пойнт

Одна из многих живописных смотровых площадок вдоль Дезерт-Вью-драйв, которую вы не захотите пропустить. Панорамный вид на Гранд-Каньон и проблески реки Колорадо. Популярен еще и потому, что здесь находится разобранный отель Grandview. Сначала он был построен как простая шахтерская хижина, а затем расширился по мере роста туризма. Тропа Грандвью проходит по оригинальному маршруту коренных американцев, который также использовался для доступа к медным, золотым и серебряным рудникам до основания национального парка. Это поход, который требует подготовки из-за его крутизны, воздействия солнца в летние месяцы и льда и снега зимой.

48

Навахо-Пойнт

Самая высокая естественная смотровая площадка вдоль Южного края, расположенная на улице Дезерт-Вью-Драйв, позволяет оглянуться на Сторожевую башню Дезерт-Вью. Определенно стоящая остановка, чтобы сделать и сфотографироваться.

49

Сан-Франциско Пикс

К северу от Флагстаффа, когда мы едем в национальный парк или из него, пики Сан-Франциско представляют собой вулканическую горную цепь и самую высокую точку в штате Аризона, возвышающуюся на высоту более 12 000 футов.

50

Тусаянские руины и музей

Узнайте о народе пуэбло через руины и внутри музейных экспозиций, артефактов, книжного магазина и персонала на месте. Приятное дополнение к частым остановкам на смотровой площадке вдоль Дезерт-Вью-Драйв.

51

Мазер Пойнт

Для многих посетителей это первое представление о массивности Гранд-Каньона. Это первое впечатление, которое останется с вами навсегда. Легкий доступ с большой парковки по асфальтированной дорожке для всех транспортных средств. Там же находится большой информационный центр и кафе. Это живописная и полезная, но плоская прогулка по кольцевой тропе, соединяющей деревню и мыс Мазер.

52

Явапай Пойнт

Для посетителей, прибывающих в Гранд-Каньон через Южный вход, Явапай часто является вторым панорамным видом, которым они останавливаются, чтобы насладиться после мыса Мазер. Вы можете глубже погрузиться в сложную геологическую историю Гранд-Каньона в Геологическом музее Явапаи. Этот сочетающий в себе книжный магазин, музей с экспонатами и информационный центр построен в гармоничной скале каньона, чтобы гармонировать с окружающей средой. Он обеспечивает крытую смотровую площадку с большими панорамными окнами. Трехмерные модели карты позволяют оценить масштаб и цветные слои по всему Южному краю.

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.

Grand Canyon Village

The historic heart of the Grand Canyon and location of famous lodges and businesses, including the Kolb and Lookout Studios.
