Bright Angel Day Hike

The Bright Angel Trail is a Grand Canyon classic.Walk in the footsteps of the ancients as we drop below the canyon's rim. You will be able to see the geologic history first hand, as we get a grasp of just how big the canyon really is. Our chances of seeing Big horn sheep, Lizards, and possibly the famous California Condors, are very high on this excursion. The Bright Angel trail provides great views of the canyon,so come prepared with your camera.

BE PREPARED!!The trail begins at 7000 ft above sea level, and at this altitude even fit hikers have to catch their breath. We will hike to the 3 mile rest stop,dropping 1531ft in the process. Usually the hike down is the easier part. Lunch will be provided by your guide. When we are ready, we'll begin the hike up, which takes twice as long. If you choose this trip in summer months, be ready for the heat. Your guide will carry extra water and snacks to help get you out of the canyon.

Hiking the Bright Angel trail is an awesome way to see the Grand Canyon. You will be able to experience this incredible wonder of the world, rather than merely looking over the rim.
