Full description
You will love this half-day hike and drive tour! We will meet at 7 am and have you back by noon. I know this is early, but we will miss much of the annoying crowds, AND the temperatures will be more moderate! Hooray for moderate temperatures!
We will board the (mandatory) shuttle bus and tour the Scenic Canyon including a flat, very-mild 2-mile trail. This is a MUST-SEE canyon! With towering, 2000 foot cliffs and a tranquil river this scenery is incredible. The trail is paved and very even, i.e. no big rocks in the path to step over. It is a very popular trail because even people with low mobility can walk it (I’ve seen people pushing baby strollers, wheelchairs and walkers along the way).
After the hike is over we will head back to the Visitors’ Center and use my minivan for the viewpoint tour. We will stop at 3-5 locations for pictures and walk around the various overlooks. The stark beauty is spectacular!
Finally we will deliver you back to the Visitors’ Center where we will leave you to your car and your many wonderful memories!
