This is a nice paved trail. We saw several elk, tarantulas, snakes, and deer. It is almost all uphill one way and almost all downhill returning so when we rode out with all the challenging hills, the coast back was nice. There are some areas that it is bumpy. Overall beautiful and you can bike right into the Grand Canyon Park so you can avoid the line getting in.
We stayed in Tusayan and rode in and out of the park. The surface might have been rough in places, but a beautiful ride. We have recumbents and the “uphills” we’re just right. Once in the park the signage is nonexistent and we ended up getting lost twice. We did not ride up to Hermits Rest. You have to ride the road with the shuttle busses and we felt it was too risky with the Bents.
This was so spectacular and worth it!! The majestic view from the rims was just breathtaking! Best bike ride I have ever done.
Very steep rough trail. We could not ride with our city e bikes.
One) The Tusayan to Grand Canyon Village Greenway seems like a good idea, but the execution is lacking. I rode from the Village toward Tusayan after much difficulty actually locating the Greenway in the Village because the signage is non-existent. Once I stumbled upon the Greenway, I found the asphalt surface to be far from smooth. I was frustrated enough with the jarring ride that upon reaching the Grand Canyon south entrance station, I rode back to the village along the highway, State Route 64. Two) The Greenway within Grand Canyon Village is somewhat acceptable, but don't expect to have a leisurely, smooth and uninterrupted ride with the pavement cracks and starts and stops every time you intersect a roadway. With the low speed limit, I found it smoother, more comfortable, safe enough and just as easy to simply ride to the right along the roadways. Granted, I am comfortable riding in traffic and always use bright colored clothing with flashers on the front and rear of the bike.
We drove up from Flagstaff on a day trip to ride the Grand Canyon Greenway.The earlier the better as the tourists are back in force.We parked at the Visitors Center and headed west.We were there in April so the heat was not a problem but pay attention to the wind direction and strength which with the altitude can require more effort for those from lower elevations.The trails to the area restricted to just bus traffic are pleasant and when the restricted road begins keep in mind the tourist buses will not pass you when you are peddling and you must come to a full stop for them to pass!!Not what you may want to do on a occaisionaly sharp grade and to make matters more challenging there are not paved shoulders which allow for a place to pull over.That being said the ride and views are well worth the effort{no e-bikes for us yet} and a visit to Hermits Rest is a quite special stop to refuel.The road back east is a steady uphill grade so a tailwind its preferred!Enjoy the unique ride and watch the weather forecasts.
WINDY, so bring a windbreaker. Use sunscreen against the intense sunlight. Smooth, paved trail with lots of places to stop and soak up the beauty of the mighty Grand Canyon. We arrived at 10:30 am and by the time we left several hours later it was getting people-ly. Definitely a slow pedal to enjoy this natural wonder.
The moth end takes you through the wash, firm dirt surface. Very nice for biking. The trail goes further north than indicated on map. Goes alongside the university and down into countryside. South end of trail under construction but they do have you rerouted on a alternate path. Fun ride. Past a half dozen people maybe.
This trail almost connects the wash trail and the rt. 66 trail. Nice wide pathway next to road.
Probably better suited for mountain biking, jogging or hiking. Very rough at times so I would not categorize this as road biking. Beautiful scenery!
