Description [Suggest Changes]

The Hermit's Road section of the Greenway Trail is a true gem. The only trail in Grand Canyon that is open to bikes, this trail has some of the best viewpoints of the Grand Canyon that you can see from the South Rim.

This gentle path has very little change in elevation making it an easy cruise. The scenery is wonderful and on a quiet day from Pima Point you can hear the Colorado crashing through Granite Rapid far below.
