Trail Details
The most popular hiking trail into Grand Canyon, the Bright Angel Trail gives hikers the opportunity to walk in the footsteps of the canyon's Indigenous Peoples, miners, and early tourists, as they descend into the canyon's depths. Havasupai Gardens can be accessed via the Bright Angel Trail and is an important cultural site that honors the Havasupai people, the original inhabitants of this land, who are valued partners of the National Park Service and longstanding guardians of Grand Canyon.
