Центар за посетиоце Гранд Цаниона Соутх Рим

Прво ћете стићи у Центар за посетиоце, где можете пронаћи мапе и друге информације о парку, као и тоалете и грицкалице.

3

Матхер Поинт

Ваш први поглед биће Матхер Поинт, једно од најпопуларнијих места у парку. Погледи овде су једноставно невероватни, нудећи јасну линију погледа до 30 миља преко кањона!

4

Иавапаи Поинт

Следећи видиковац је Иавапаи Поинт, где ћете добити још сјајних погледа са јужног обода кањона и сазнати о племену по коме је тачка добила име.

5

Геолошки музеј Иавапаи

Желите да се упознате са геолошком историјом Великог кањона? Само свратите у Геолошки музеј Иавапаи за неке образовне експонате!

6

Хопи Хоусе

Прва станица у селу је кућа Хопи, невероватно тачна рекреација древних Хопи станова који су се овде могли наћи док је племе још увек заузимало подручје. Ова зграда је такође савршено место да покупите неке ручно рађене сувенире из ваше посете!

7

Колб Студио

Док настављате до Колб Студија, конкурента Лоокоуот Студију, чућете све о горком ривалству између њих двојице које их је замало довело у пропаст још 1900-их.

8

Лоокоут Студио

Испред су две зграде смештене на ивици кањона. Онај који тренутно можете да видите је Лоокоут Студио, а наћи ћете један мало иза њега под називом Колб Студио.

9

Хермит Роад

За следећи део обиласка, ускочићете у бесплатни шатл парка. Не брините, ваш аудио водич ће вас упутити како да то урадите!

10

Траилвиев Оверлоок

Прва станица на Хермит Роад-у је Траилвиев Оверлоок, са којег се пружа поглед на чувену стазу Светлих анђела, напорну стазу која води све до дна кањона. Вероватно ћете чак видети неке исцрпљене планинаре како се пењу!

11

Марицопа Поинт

Следећи је Марицопа Поинт, који је некада био место експлоатације уранијума. Откријте неочекивану историју иза овога док цените прелепе погледе.

12

Повелл Поинт

После тога је Пауел Поинт, који нуди више кањонске магије и одаје почаст истраживачу који је ризиковао живот и тело да би нацртао реку Колорадо.

13

Хопи Поинт

Рута шатла води вас до Хопи Поинта, где ћете научити о ћелавским орловима, њиховом значају за племе Хопи и како их уочити.

14

Мохаве Поинт

Ако сте се надали сјајном погледу на реку Колорадо, то је следеће у Мохаве Поинту. Овде ћете добити поглед из птичје перспективе на ову изузетно моћну реку.

15

Пима Поинт

Следећа станица са ваше десне стране је Пима Поинт, са којег се пружа један од најбољих погледа на Колорадо. Када сте тамо, застаните и слушајте. Ако је поглед тих, можете чути шум воде која се креће дуж реке.

16

Пустињаков одмор

Па одакле све ове ствари име? Па, у данима рударења, један одређени рудар није имао интереса да буде у близини других људи. Далеко је преферирао ритмове природе. Већи део свог живота провео је живећи у близини овог места, задовољан да проводи дане само са камењем, птицама и веверицама које му праве друштво.

17

Пипе Цреек Виста

Након шатла, тура се наставља на исток дуж Десерт Виев Дриве-а. Прва станица дуж овог пута је Пајп Крик Виста, омиљена за птичаре који се надају да ће уочити ређе примерке кањона, укључујући чак и ултра ретке калифорнијске кондоре!

18

Грандвиев Поинт

После тога је Грандвиев Поинт, а поглед је заиста величанствен. Ово је такође стаза за пешачку стазу која води испод руба кањона и садржи неке заиста изузетне знаменитости.

19

Моран Поинт

Настављајући вожњу, стићи ћете до Моран Поинта, који се може похвалити сјајним погледом на реку Колорадо из потпуно новог угла.

20

Липан Поинт

Након тога ћете доћи на Липан Поинт, који нуди још један сјајан поглед на реку, заједно са неким фасцинантним чињеницама о геологији парка.

21

Навајо Поинт

Коначна тачка гледишта дуж ове вожње је Навахо Поинт, и последња свакако није последња у овом случају. Навајо Поинт је заправо највиши видиковац на целом јужном ободу, који се налази на невероватних 7.500 стопа изнад нивоа мора!

22

Стражарска кула са погледом на пустињу Гранд Цанион

Коначно ћете стићи до култне Стражарске куле Десерт Виев, заиста импресивне камене структуре која се налази на ивици кањона. У зависности од годишњег доба, можете се чак попети на врх како бисте имали поглед за разлику од било којег другог. Обилазак се завршава овде.

23

Иаки Поинт

Популарно место за посматрање изласка и заласка сунца, овај удаљени видиковац и стајалиште за шатл нуди тоалете.

24

Јужна Каибаб стаза

Соутх Каибаб Траил је пешачка стаза у Националном парку Гранд Цанион, који се налази у америчкој држави Аризона. За разлику од стазе Бригхт Ангел која такође почиње на јужном ободу Великог кањона и води до реке Колорадо, стаза Соутх Каибаб прати гребен до Скелетон Поинт-а омогућавајући поглед на кањон од 360 степени.

25

Тусаиан рушевине и музеј

Рушевине и музеј Тусаиан су одлична станица за учење више о древним културама. Посебно смо уживали у шетњи кроз рушевине са натписима.

Hermit's Rest

So where does all this stuff get its name? Well, back in the mining days, one particular miner had no interest in being around other people. He far preferred the rhythms of nature. He spent most of his life living near this spot, content to while away his days with only the rocks and birds and squirrels to keep him company.

42
