We love hiking. It's a great way to stretch our legs and to take in some gorgeous views. If you're willing to go out on a ledge, you have to use cliffside walkways on the Bright Angel Trail in Arizona. This trail can be found on the south rim of the Grand Canyon. It's one of the most popular and maintained trails around. Despite the cliffside views, it's the safest trail too! Grab your favorite camera, your friends, and some food and water for this awesome adventure. It'll only cost you $30 per vehicle, but you can split the cost with friends. The trail is steep, offers very little shade, and seasonal water along the way. But due to extreme conditions, it's best if you still pack water and snacks. It's even possible to see wildlife such as mules, squirrels, scorpions and more. You can hike here year-round, however, it's best not to hike in the summer as temperatures can reach over 100 degrees Farenheight. Fall is a great time to hike here because the weather is cooler.

The scenery below might leave you speechless. Sometimes we're amazed at how beautiful the Grand Canyon State is. This trail is rated hard, so it's best to leave your pets at home. When you reach the Colorado River, you can relax and have a picnic. There's no need to worry about needing to use the restroom as there are restrooms located at the 1.5, 3, and 4.5-mile markers.
