North Rim Hiking

Enhance your North Rim hiking adventure by taking along a GeoQuest GPS Ranger

Most North Rim hiking trails lead to panoramic viewpoints of one of the seven natural wonders of the world. The Grand Canyon is a deep chasm that spans 277 miles of the Colorado River’s length. It is an average of 10 miles wide and one mile deep. The North Rim is about 1,000 feet higher than the South Rim and sits among evergreen forests of pine, fir and spruce. It is also significantly less crowded than the South Rim.

When you go on your North Rim hiking trip, you will enhance the journey by taking along a GPS Ranger from GeoQuest. Carrying the handheld device is just like having a park ranger with you. The GPS Ranger delivers video content on its four-inch screen about points of interest along the trail as you approach them, based on GPS coordinates. When you hike North Rim trails with a GPS Ranger, you will learn about the geology, flora and fauna you are viewing. It makes your trip more than a scenic experience – it becomes educational as well!

In addition to serving as your guide for North Rim hiking trails, the GPS Ranger can also lead you in your hiking adventures in Zion National Park, Bryce Canyon National Park and Cedar Breaks National Monument. After your visit these spectacular scenic destinations, you will remember more than just images of panoramic vistas and picturesque natural formations, you will also remember the story behind the scenery!
