Grand View Point Overlook
Grand View Point
The southernmost viewpoint on Island in the Sky mesa, overlooking the White Rim, the Colorado River canyon and the distant Needles, with an almost endless view.
Grand View Point lies at the end of the mesa road. Below the overlook, layer upon layer of white-rimmed rock formations and winding canyons stretch out, and on clear days you can see mountain ranges more than 100 kilometers away. A flat trail of about 3 kilometers round trip follows the cliff edge, and the scenery changes with every step. It is the top spot for sunset on Island in the Sky. There are many stretches along the cliff edge without railings, so keep a close eye on children.
