What To Expect

Vermilion Cliffs National Monument

Vermilion Cliffs National Monument is a vast wilderness area spanning nearly 300,000 acres. While most drivers will choose to continue their journey straight to the North Rim, this stop marks the beginning of rugged 4-wheel drive routes leading to attractions like Wire Pass Day Hikes and the Condor Viewing Site.

Pipe Spring National Monument

The National Park Service's website(nps.gov/pisp) sums this unique national monument best: "The rich history of Pipe Spring and its flowing water comes alive as you explore the traditions of the Kaibab Paiute and the Mormon settlers through the museum, historic fort, cabins, and garden. Hike the Ridge Trail to enjoy geologic wonders, plants, and wildlife. Attend living history demonstrations and talks and be sure to visit with our amazing ranch animals!

Kanab Visitor Center

One of the four visitor centers within the Grand Staircase Escalante National Monument. The Kanab Visitor Center focuses on the geology and archeology of the Grand Staircase Escalante National Monument.

Le Fevre Overlook

There’s only one stop for visitors coming from Fredonia before they arrive at Jacob’s Lake, and that’s the Le Fevre Overlook. This roadside stop looks out at the red-orange bands of the Grand Staircase Escalante. There’s even binoculars so you can admire the staircase with a better, closer view!

Vista Encantada Picnic Area

A quiet viewpoint along Cape Royal Drive, Vista Encantada is a picnic area that's blanketed in wildflowers and offers views of Nankoweap. The viewpoint of Vista Encantada looks out over the Walhalla Plateau. On clear days, youmay be able to see the Painted Desert in the east.

Roosevelt Point

Another viewpoint along Cape Royal Road. Roosevelt Point is accessed through a very short walk and has resting benches. Despite the high ridge, a fair amount of the scenery to the north is visible including the furthest section of the Grand Canyon, where the Colorado River forms an unbranched gorge just a mile or so across, cutting into the flat desert plain between the Vermilion and Echo Cliffs.

Cape Final Trail

This is a 4-mile out and back trail leads to Cape Final. The trail is rated easy, which means it's relatively flat and shaded. The first part of the trail winds through the Ponderosa pine forest until you get to Cape Final Overlook, which provides expansive views of the North Rim. Many people say that this is the best overlook on the North Rim.

Walhalla Overlook

The Walhalla Overlook is just across the road from the Ruins. Here, you'll be treated to views of the Echo Cliffs, the Painted Desert, and the Little Colorado River Gorge.

Point Sublime

Moderately challenging 32.5 mile out-and back hike

Widforss Trail

Named for artist Gunnar Widforss, this trail is a long one, ut a flat one. It's 10 miles of relatively flat trail. The first part is slightly uphill through forest. It will then follow the rim of the canyon before dropping down into the valley and then to a final plateau for the best views.

Bright Angel Point

This is the most visited viewpoint on the North Rim! Bright Angel Point can be accessed behind the Lodge on the Transept Trail. This is only a half-mile, paved path that leads to the Point, where you'll be treated to view of three peaks named for three Hindu deities: Deva Temple, Brahma Temple and Zoroaster Temple.

North Rim Visitor Center

Plenty of parking here! The North Rim Visitor Center also offers educational programs, interactive exhibits both indoor and outdoor, a large gift shop, ranger information stations and those all-important restrooms, too!
