About The Tour
***PARK ACCESS IMPACTED BY SOUTH RIM FIRE.***
Both the South Rim and East Portal areas were affected by recent fires, but have since reopened to visitors (weather permitting). Some trails and services may still be limited as crews continue repairs and the landscape begins to recover.
Are you ready to step back in time? Travel through the depths of Black Canyon, where sheer cliffs and roaring waters hold stories of daring explorers, heartbreaking struggles, and astonishing feats of engineering.
Experience it all along the breathtaking heights of Rim Drive and the dramatic depths of East Portal Road.
Here are just a few of the fun things you can do on the tour!
• Watch the sun dip behind cliffs at the peaceful Sunset View overlook.
• Stand at Gunnison Point for dramatic views of the canyon’s steep walls.
• Stop at Dragon Point to spot dark volcanic rock among canyon layers.
• Look deep into the gorge from Chasm View’s thrilling rocky edge.
• Drive to Gunnison East Portal for riverside views and picnic spots.
• Take a scenic drive to the remote North Rim and experience the rim less traveled.
