Six million years old and one of the most astonishing and amazing spots on this planet: Grand Canyon. Simply breathtaking. Enjoy the impressive views deep into the gorge of the sparkling blue Colorado River. The Southern Rim offers numerous spots to catch glances that go until the very horizon. Massive, huge, monumental - any term fits for the canyon that comes in pastel hues or deep red shades, depending on weather and daytime. An extraordinary experience at any time of the year and day.
For an outdoor adventure, take your time hiking the Bright Angel Trail down towards the river. But plan your hike properly: be aware of the temperatures, stay hydrated, and take 1 to 2 extra days for the tour.
The Grand Canyon is World Heritage Site by UNESCO in 1979.
