Afisha Life | Приватний тур і похід на цілий день Національним парком Гранд-Каньйон

1

Мазер Пойнт

Мальовничий оглядовий майданчик уздовж Саут-Ріму, популярний краєвидами на каньйон

2

Марікопа Пойнт

Крім приголомшливих краєвидів, з Марікопа-Пойнт відкривається вид на колишню шахту Орфан Лод, яку в 1891 році заволодів шахтар Деном Хоганом. Спочатку добуваючи мідь, Хоган перейшов на уранову руду в 1950-х роках. Гірничі роботи закінчилися в 1967 році. Національний парк Гранд-Каньйон придбав це майно в 1987 році, але почав масштабне відновлення навколишнього середовища лише в 2008 році

3

Пауелл Пойнт

Меморіал Пауелу на цьому оглядовому майданчику присвячений дослідницьким подорожам майора Джона Уеслі Пауелла та експедиційних екіпажів у 1869 та 1871-72 роках вниз річкою Колорадо. З Пауелл-Пойнт також відкриваються приголомшливі краєвиди.

4

Хопі Пойнт

Хопі-Пойнт є одним із найпопулярніших оглядових майданчиків для спостереження за заходом і сходом сонця через широкі краєвиди. На заході видно річку Колорадо. Тут є туалети.

5

Мохаве Пойнт

Ще одна вражаюча точка для спостереження за заходом і сходом сонця, Mohave Point також пропонує вид на річку Колорадо глибоко в каньйоні нижче.

6

Безодня

З цього оглядового майданчика відкривається майже вертикальний вид на каньйон, на дренажну зону Мон’юмент-Крік, де мандрівники часто таборуються поруч із Мон’юмент-Крік або на невеликому пляжі вздовж річки Колорадо в Граніт-Рапідс.

7

Monument Creek Vista

З цієї точки зору починається маршрут Грінвей Трейл, який вміщує туристів, велосипедистів і відвідувачів на інвалідних візках. Стежка відповідає Рекомендаціям щодо доступності для відкритих забудованих територій. Значна частина стежки пролягає по трасі Hermit Road 1912 року. Є шість краєвидів, включаючи Піма-Пойнт, на додаток до кількох зон відпочинку вздовж стежки.

8

Піма Пойнт

Піма-Пойнт — одне з найкращих місць на узбережжі, де можна побачити, а іноді й почути річку. Сплескіт і скрегіт Гранітних порогів внизу можна почути, як луна відлунює стінами каньйону в тихі дні. Стежка Грінвей продовжується звідси до Hermits Rest, що дозволяє велосипедистам і відвідувачам на інвалідних візках розділити шлях із пішоходами.

9

Відпочинок відлюдника

Мері Колтер, один із найвідоміших архітекторів Гранд-Каньйону, побудувала Hermits Rest у 1914 році, щоб виглядати як стара шахтарська каюта з гігантським каміном і переднім ганком. Сьогодні Hermits Rest має сувенірний магазин і невелику закусочну. Тут є туалети. Стежка відлюдників, яка круто звивається вниз у каньйон, починається приблизно за 0,5 милі, 0,8 км на захід від Rest Rest.

10

Стежка Південний Кайбаб

Маршрут Південний Кайбаб пропонує чудові краєвиди та може бути адаптований для людей із різними можливостями!
