Northern Arizona Jeep Rentals, 4x4 ATV Off Road

The Grand Canyon National Park in Arizona has great opportunities for off road jeep, 4 x 4, and ATV driving. Many tour companies provide rentals for those without their special vehicle and can provide guide information regarding the many trails it has to offer. There have never been more possibilities for such thrilling adventures.

If going off road is your thing then driving the trails in the Grand Canyon National Park, Arizona, is the ultimate experience. Rentals are available from many tour companies, who encourage drivers to challenge themselves on the varied trails in the area.

Most of the trails are open year round, but the most appropriate times include from October to December and March to May. During these months, the routes are fairly easy, if not slightly challenging to navigate, but generally considered safer than any other times because there is less risk of heat exhaustion or getting bogged down in heavy snow.

One of the most popular destinations is the Colorado River Overlook, a nine mile drive from the nearest highway. It offers views of the lowest part of the canyon, and leads to the equally popular Whitmore Point.

Most enthusiasts plan for a rough drive and pit stops enroute. There are plenty of places to stop to snap a picture or two, and great spots for picnicking or hiking. In fact, many of the hiking trails crisscross the trail, so it is important to look out for pedestrians along the way. For more excitement though, these rides can be combined with visits to local archaeological ruins and even the newest park attractions.
