Sunrise & Sunset
The Grand Canyon's daily miracles
Don’t waste the gold! Golden light makes Grand Canyon sunsets and sunrises a hand-applauding event. When the canyon and clouds light up with blushing hues, do more that document the event, capture a memory to frame.
Every viewpoint is great, but Hopi, Yaki, and Yavapi points span west to east for views of the glowing canyon.
Don’t rush for the shuttle bus when the sun dips below the horizon. The sky continues to blaze for another 20 minutes.
The Hermits Rest return shuttle stops at Mojave and Hopi Points every 15 minutes to take sundowners back to the Village.
For sunrise head to Yaki and Yavapai points.
