Grand Canyon Hiking Trails Guide With Tips You Should Know

"At nearly 10 miles one-way, Bright Angel is the most popular hiking trail in the Grand Canyon. Not only is it easy to access from the South Rim — its trailhead is located just west of Bright Angel Lodge in Grand Canyon Village — it also offers great views and can be shortened at any point to complete in one day. This dirt trail has several water stations and covered rest stops, and it is considered the safest trail in the canyon." - Travel + Leisure Editors
