Hero: Little Grand Canyon

It doesn't get much better than sitting on the edge, drinking your morning coffee while the sun rises over the Little Grand Canyon. This easy out-and-back trail has countless free campsites right on the canyon's edge, or you can choose a camp tucked back in trees across the trail from the cliffs. There are breathtaking views all along the route. The trail becomes rougher the further you travel out to the three overlook points. Each overlook offers a different view down into the canyon, where the San Rafael River cuts through the earth. To reach the final point, you'll need 4x4 and high clearance.
