Pima Point - Grand Canyon National Park, AZ - a spectacular view of the Grand Canyon's natural wonders


Pima Point located Arizona's Grand Canyon National Park is West Rim Drives last point. The road itself goes a mile and a half past it to Hermit's Rest. There is a cafy, gift store and restrooms for the convenience of visitors to the area. The view is limited here because of the dense wooded area.

The end of the canyon is where you will find the overlook. When you get to the northernmost corner of Pima Point you can see for more than forty miles without any obstructions. Visitors to the canyon can see all the way to the Great Scenic Divide and Powell Plateau to the west and the Bright Angel Canyon to the east.

The west side is dominated by the Hermit Creek which has the steep peaks of the Cocopa and Yuma points on its far side. There is a narrow corridor of vegetation and water flows all year long at the creek's lower end. The Hermit Trail cuts through the canyon taking visitors though Cope Butte, around Travertine Canyon and to the Monument Creek. At the opposite end there is a view of the Ninetyfour Mile Creek.

Pima Point offers a gorgeous view of the Grand Canyon Nation Park and its natural beauty.
