During the summer months, rangers typically offer morning geology walks, afternoon overlook talks, and evening programs on various topics. In the late winter, weekend guided snowshoe walks are a great way to explore the rim. Stop by the South Rim Visitor Center for current offerings and times. Reservations may be required.
