Overview

Forego the busy national park crowds and experience rare sights in the heart of the Grand Canyon at Bar 10 Ranch. This exclusive tour flies guests to the Arizona Strip just miles from the unexplored northern rim of the Grand Canyon. It provides an unmatched Grand Canyon National Park experience from a unique vantage point. Head off the beaten path on a Polaris Ranger and travel along a 4×4 trail through Whitmore Canyon and Lake Mead Recreation Area to the North Canyon's rim. At 3,000 feet (880 m) above the Colorado River, the sheer drop from the edge of this area offers spectacularly rare views. Guests can take time to explore the unusual collection of desert vegetation, and animal life found here. Back at Bar 10 Ranch, relax and enjoy the staff's hospitality and an authentic Dutch oven barbecue lunch.
