Overview If hikers want easy grandeur, the Rim Trail is the place to go. This trail runs within a few feet of the lip of the South Rim from Yaki Point to Hermits Rest, and much of the 13.5-mile trail is nearly level. Rim Trail - Bright Angel to Maricopa Point On this page, photos are presented of the east end of the Rim Trail from Bright Angel Point to Mohave Point.
