Hermit Rd

"Take the Scenic Route to Hermits Rest This relatively short drive packs nine Grand Canyon overlooks into a seven-mile stretch along the South Rim to Hermits Rest. The road isopen to private vehicles only during the winter months (December to February), but for the rest of the year, you’ll need to hop on either the free shuttle bus or a commercial tour if you want to see its stunning expanse. Every overlook offers a fresh, stop-you-in-your-tracks perspective of the canyon, but Hopi Point is particularly impressive because that'swhere you’ll first spot the Colorado River. If you luck out with a quiet day, Pima Point is where you can actually hear the river as thewater rushesover Granite Rapids, amplified by the canyon walls."
