Course Info
The road is all dirt, except the last mile. Some might call it a trail run, but really its still a road. We tend to think of trail runs as a single track trail that is exclusively for walking/running. Depending on your definition, you may consider it a trail run. To us its kind of a hybrid. To everyone it will be fun and beautiful.
This course is going to be great, but it does not offer any canyon views. It is run right on the border of the national park, in the Kaibab National Forest immediately west of Tusayan, AZ. From the starting line, you can drive approximately 5 minutes to the edge of the canyon.

The  course begins at the new parking lot at North end of Tusayan, AZ right outside the South Rim of the Grand Canyon.
