Cape Final Trail Length: 4 miles round trip Difficulty: Easy
Description: Cape Final is a spur jutting east from Cape Royal. It is not as well known, and you've got to hike a fair distance to enjoy the vista, so it doesn't draw nearly as many people as the more famous viewpoints. It is every bit as spectacular, and you may be the only one there when you visit.
Parking Area The parking area is located alone the Cape Royal road, about 2.5 miles north of Cape Royal and the road's end. The trail is easy to see and follow as it heads east from the parking area. It goes through a forested area, away from the rim, before emerging at the viewpoint.
Viewpoint The vista provides sweeping views into the northern portion of the Grand Canyon, over a vast array of deep canyons and towering stone monuments. |
