Description
Looking for a more adventurous Grand Canyon hike? This prehistoric trail was improved by Seth Tanner in the 1880s to reach mining claims and was at one time part of the Horse-thief Trail. We will walk this steep trail through limestone and sandstone formations. If adventure-in-a-day is what you’re after, join us for this one!
This is our most serious day hike. We descend 2-3 miles down the Tanner Trail, which is known by avid Grand Canyon hikers as one of the more serious trails on the South Rim. Be ready to challenge yourself on an exciting hike and soak up quintessential Grand Canyon views!
(Important: We run hikes in almost all weather conditions and very rarely cancel. See our terms and conditions for information on cancellations and refunds.)
