Cape Final Trail
Flat trail, wide-angle canyon view
If you only do one short cross-country hike, try this easy 4-mile roundtrip. Hike through open pine forest on an old roadbed, get a glimpse of the inner canyon, then reach Cape Final and spin around for a clear, 270-degree view. Across the chasm, colorful temples, buttes, cliffs, and ridges lead to the river, then the South Rim rises almost vertically. The trail begins 2.5 miles before the end of the Cape Royal road.
