Riding the Grand Canyon backroads
The route crosses the wide-open Arizona Strip on long dirt roads with almost no traffic. The last miles near Toroweap are rough and rocky, and the reward is one of the most dramatic views in the Grand Canyon, straight down to the Colorado River.
This is a serious trip into some of the most remote country in the lower 48 states. Plan for a very long day or an overnight, check road and weather conditions first, and travel with at least two machines. We strongly recommend a guide.
