Exactly right. I went to the Grand Canyon over 15 years ago and only went to one overlook and left. I left thinking the Grand Canyon was very underwhelming; now I realize from photos and videos that it is spectacular because of the inner canyon. I look forward to going back, likely in 2023.
I was the same but then again I was 7, I went with my dad on the train from Flagstaff and were there for only a couple of hours. I don’t remember a lot and I would love to do it again if I go out west.
How many days would you recommend to do justice to the Grand Canyon? From what you have said, I would love to see all of the outlooks on both sides of the canyon, the Bright Angel trail, and any short trails. I would also take the train for one day. (Train lover here). Any trip to the Grand Canyon would also mean a day at Petrified Forest NP as well.
Technically, it’s best to spend multiple weeks there. However, I think a good balance of time commitment and getting great experiences is 3-4 days dedicated solely to Grand Canyon.

I hope you love the Canyon when you go back.

@@NationalParkWild Thanks! I was thinking I would need 2-3 days.
Are you saying “Bray Angel Trail” in the beginning? I tried to look it up, but got zero results.
Bright Angel Trail.
