Are there short introductory hikes that will teach me more about the Grand Canyon?

Meet the Canyon

Grand Canyon National Park Lodges, the concessionaire offering lodging and dining inside the park, offers family vacation packages that include lodging and educational tours with the Grand Canyon Field Institute. This is a great way to really get an overview of the Grand Canyon with kids.

The "Meet the Canyon" series offers short day hikes to different locations to introduce families to the canyon. Even if you're only visiting for a day, you can fit in one of these hikes for a greater understanding of the history and geology of this wonder of the world.

Experiencing the Grand Canyon with kids may open your eyes to some of the unique natural features you might have missed otherwise. The Grand Canyon Field Institute's programs are open to children over eight and their families.
