About this activity
For a great scenic bike ride at the Grand Canyon National Park, the Hermit Road Tour is perfect for those wanting to explore the rim by bike and avoid the big crowds.

On this tour, the bike shuttle transports cyclists past the challenging uphill section of the road to begin riding the 5.5-mile flat portion of the road (closed to public traffic) and greenways from Hopi Point to Hermit's Rest. The tour proceeds westward for 5.5 miles (9 km) of low intensity riding; stopping at jaw-dropping lookouts along the way to take in the sights and hear interesting information about the natural and human history of the area.

The tour ends at Hermit’s Rest where you can take your picture with the historic bell that graces the entrance to the 1914 Mary Jane Colter building. The structure was designed to provide shelter, food, and curios for tourists at the end of the West Rim Drive in the early tourism days at Grand Canyon. From Hermit’s rest our shuttle will return you and your bikes to our base location at the Visitor Center.

Please note: this tour is seasonal and only operates available between March and October.

Trey was an amazing guide! So many beautiful views—we learned a lot about the history of the canyon, the indigenous tribes that lived in and around the canyon, and the native plants and animals that reside in the canyon. So much better than riding a packed bus or walking the length of the Hermit Rd (in our opinion). Thank you Trey!!!

Had a good time on this tour. While the stops between biking were informative, I would have preferred more active biking time and less chatting time. Stopping for 10 min is fine, but 20 or more is too long if it is a "bike" tour.
