We did the 4-in-1 tour and LOVED it! The helicopter pilots were professional and courteous, and the river boat guides were awesome. Absolutely recommend.

Our helicopter ride into the Grand Canyon was a highlight of our Las Vegas trip. Our pilot was very informative, and seeing the Canyon from the ground up was awesome!

Destination Guide

Why Visit the North Rim?

The North Rim is the Grand Canyon's quiet side: higher, cooler, greener, and far less crowded than the South and West Rims. It sits only about 10 miles from the South Rim as the crow flies, yet more than 200 miles apart by road.

The higher elevation brings cooler temperatures, denser forest, and some of the canyon's most dramatic overlooks. Point Imperial is the highest viewpoint on the North Rim at over 8,800 feet, joined by Cape Royal, Roosevelt Point, Walhalla Overlook, and Angels Window.

Because it's remote and open only seasonally, most travelers from Las Vegas experience it from the air: fly over both the South and North Rims by helicopter, or take a flightseeing airplane for a wide aerial view.

Grand Canyon North Rim: FAQ

Answers to the questions travelers ask most.

When is the North Rim open?
It's seasonal, typically mid-May through mid-October, with winter snow closing it. It is also recovering from the 2025 Dragon Bravo Fire, so ground facilities are limited for the 2026 season.
How is the North Rim different from the South Rim?
It's higher (Point Imperial tops 8,800 feet), cooler, forested, and far less crowded, and it's remote, so most visitors see it by air.
Can you visit the North Rim on a day trip from Las Vegas?
By road it's too far for a comfortable day trip. The practical way is a helicopter or airplane tour that includes the North Rim.
What are the best North Rim viewpoints?
