    This place is simply amazing! I cannot recommend this place enough. For what it’s worth it is one of my favorite national parks! On each of these overlooks you can learn a little bit of information about the park and take in the views while getting in some fresh air and exercise!
  • By Gunnar Caya
    Good views of the canyon, but not nearly as breathtaking as some of the other viewpoints on the South Rim (or any of them on the North Rim for that matter). This viewpoint does have a nice picnic area and restroom facilities, so it is one of the more family-friendly viewpoints in the whole park
  • By Katie Fiola Jones
    Great overlook! Very short walk!
  • By Deb Clif
    Amazing views. Short walk to the end. Very steep, and not good if you are afraid of heights.
  • By 吴锐恒（Ruiheng Edbalt Wu）
    From here you will enjoy the deep valley.
