In the Grand Canyon visit scenic viewpoints are many, and all quite interesting. The first are spectacular, because never seen before, but going forward the landscape becomes known, and therefore always the same. A word of advice: in summer, shelter from the Sun!

This is one of the most stunning views you will get from Grand Canyon South Rim - fantastic depth and layering of this famous canyon. We were lucky seeing rain clouds and thunderstorms moving across this dramatic landscape. It was a memorable light show we will never forget.

Perhaps the best view, and usually has the least crowds on the south rim.
