Grand Canyon Rim 2 Rim 2 Rim Hike
TRIP DETAILS
  • Style: Hiking

  • Difficulty: Very Difficult

  • Duration: 24-34 hours

  • Distance: 31.5 miles

  • Trip Cost: $650  

  • Only 2-4 people per group

Our Grand Canyon Rim2Rim2Rim Hike is a Grand Canyon legend and deservedly so! The ability to hike across the Canyon is what makes the Rim2Rim2Rim so special, as you have the unique opportunity to experience both rims and everything in between. (The North Rim does close after October 15th every year due to harsh winter conditions and reopens on May 15th) 

The Rim2Rim2Rim hike begins on the South Rim at South Kaibab Trail where we hike down to our first stop, the famous Phantom Ranch. After a good early lunch and getting our feet wet in the creek, we start back up and head over to our next stop, Cottonwood campsite. And on the hike there, if time allows, we'll take a side trip to Ribbon Falls, one of the Grand Canyon's most dramatic waterfalls.

After a good soak in the waterfalls, we make our last push towards the North Kaibab Trail to the North Rim. 

We'll stay at the North Rim Lodge overnight. We can either stay an extra night to recover and explore the North Rim, or we can head back to the South Rim the following night. 

This hike takes a lot of training and preparation to complete but that's why we are here. We usually need about 3-5 months' advance notice before booking this trip so we have plenty of time to get ready. Yes, the goal is to finish the hike, but with our preparation, training, and guidance we make sure it's safe, fun, enjoyable but most importantly, memorable.  

What is included in price per person below

Administration of all documents to get camping dates and all permits. And our 3 Phase System: Preparation, Training, and Guidance. If requested by purchasing our Experience Plus PASS, we will make all the reservations for your hotel stays before the hike and after if necessary, meals at Phantom Ranch, camping equipment, and mules (to bring gear down to the canyon).

  • If you live in Arizona, your personal trainer will hold a few Demo Hikes with the group so we can train the body to handle the weather, different terrain, and endurance.
