Exploring the Area

One of the most pleasurable things to do at the canyon is also one of the simplest. Find a quiet place on the rim or off a trail and sit for an hour or so. Feel the air rise, watch the shadows and light play across the monuments, and listen to the timeless hush. No matter how fast you drive or how far you walk, no matter how many photos you take or angles you see the canyon from, you'll never completely "do" the canyon. So relax and enjoy it.
