Inner Canyon Highlights

The Grand Canyon is broken up into five distinct areas for viewing and discovery - the North Rim, the South Rim, the Colorado River, Tuweep, and the Inner Canyon/Backcountry. The Backcounty area is enjoyed by over 40,000 visitors each year who come to camp overnight in the Canyon. There are many features and highlights of the Colorado River Gorge that can only be seen from within the canyon. Overnight permits are required so plan early. Take plenty of water and climate protective clothing and most importantly - remember that you have to walk back up the canyon in order to get out of it.
