Description
The Rim Trail along the South Rim of the Grand Canyon provides a great way to get out and experience the park. Use the rim trail to get some exercise while out exploring the 13 miles of multi-use pathway. Whether walking, hiking, running or strolling, the rim trail is a must during your visit to Grand Canyon -- get out of the car and go Explore!
