Grand Canyon National Park, the complete guide.
大峽谷國家公園,完整指南。
The crown jewel of the American Southwest and arguably one of the most spectacular natural wonders in the world, Grand Canyon National Park winds for 277 miles through northern Arizona.
大峽谷國家公園(Grand Canyon National Park)是美國西南部皇冠上的明珠,也可以說是世界上最壯觀的自然奇觀之一,蜿蜒穿過亞利桑那州北部,全長 277 英里。
The canyon is a mile deep in most areas, formed over millions of years by the Colorado River, which runs at its base and separates the North Rim from the South Rim.
峽谷大部分地區有一英里深,由科羅拉多河經過數百萬年形成,科羅拉多河從峽谷底部流過,將北緣和南緣分隔開來。
Even though the distance between rims is just 10 miles across in most areas, keep in mind there's no bridge connecting them and it's about a five hour drive from one to the other.
儘管在大多數地區,兩圈之間的距離只有 10 英里,但請記住,兩圈之間沒有橋樑相連,從一個地方到另一個地方大約需要 5 個小時的車程。
The vast majority of travelers visit just the South Rim of the canyon, which is closest to Phoenix and Interstate 40.
絕大多數遊客都只遊覽峽谷的南緣,那裡離鳳凰城和 40 號州際公路最近。
The North Rim is only accessible by passing through southern Utah, and its remoteness means that it receives far fewer visitors.
只有通過猶他州南部才能到達北緣,而它的偏遠意味著遊客要少得多。
Things to do.
可做的事
Just visiting and standing in awe of the Grand Canyon is an experience in and of itself.
光是參觀大峽谷並對其肅然起敬本身就是一種體驗。
Even with the crowds, take the time to explore the visitor's center and walk through Grand Canyon Village on the South Rim.
即使人潮擁擠,您也可以花時間遊覽遊客中心,漫步南緣大峽谷村。
The further you venture from the main tourist traps where everybody is looking, the fewer people there will be and the more solitude you'll get to take in the majesty of the canyon.
越是遠離人頭攢動的主要旅遊景點,人就越少,您就越能獨享峽谷的雄偉壯觀。
If you're looking to adventure at the Grand Canyon, there's everything from camping to hiking to biking and rafting.
如果您想在大峽谷探險,露營、徒步旅行、騎自行車和漂流應有盡有。
From helicopter tours to mule rides, there's no way you'll be bored visiting the Grand Canyon.
從直升機遊覽到騎騾子,遊覽大峽谷絕對不會讓您感到無聊。
However, when planning your activities, make sure to pick ones on the same side of the rim.
不過,在計劃活動時,一定要選擇在環形山同一側的活動。
The last thing you want to do is accidentally book a hiking trip on one side and rafting on the other.
您最不想做的事情就是不小心一邊預訂了徒步旅行,另一邊又預訂了漂流。
You can rent bikes on the South Rim and venture up and down the Hermit Road.
您可以在南緣租借自行車,在隱士之路(Hermit Road)上上下下。
This seven-mile bike ride is closed to car traffic from March to November, making it one of the most scenic routes to bike in the world.
從三月到十一月,這條七英里長的自行車道禁止汽車通行,是世界上風景最優美的自行車道之一。
Yaki Point Road is another popular bike ride, albeit a much longer one, clocking in at, well, 42 miles.
亞基角路(Yaki Point Road)是另一條受歡迎的自行車騎行路線,儘管路程更長,達到 42 英里。
Best hikes and trails.
最佳遠足路線
If hiking is your outdoor event of choice, there's nothing that compares to trekking in the Grand Canyon.
如果徒步旅行是您戶外活動的首選,那麼沒有什麼能與在大峽谷徒步旅行相比。
There are hiking trails on the North Rim and South Rim, but keep in mind that if you want to hike down the canyon to the river, you'll need at least two days to hike down and back up.
北緣和南緣都有徒步路徑,但要注意的是,如果您想沿著峽谷徒步下到河邊,您至少需要兩天時間徒步下到河邊,然後再徒步返回。
There are a couple of options for day hikes if you don't plan to spend the night, so make sure you know what you're getting into before you begin.
如果您不打算在這裡過夜,也有幾種日間徒步旅行的選擇,所以在開始之前一定要了解自己的情況。

徒步旅行有不同的起點,單程在 8 到 15 英里之間,具體取決於起點。
Rim Trail.
邊緣小徑
Descending the canyon and hiking back up isn't for everyone, but the Rim Trail, which begins at the South Rim Visitor Center, has little elevation change.
下到峽谷再徒步返回並不適合所有人,但從南緣遊客中心開始的環形路徑海拔變化很小。

If you're visiting the South Rim, flying into Phoenix or Flagstaff are the best options.

Flagstaff is closest, but it's a small airport, so there's only a handful of flights that fly in and out of there.

Most visitors fly into Phoenix International Airport and begin the journey from there.

However, the drive from Phoenix to the Grand Canyon is about three and a half hours, so make sure to factor in that travel time into your plans.

Accessibility.
無障礙環境。
All of the shuttle buses in the park are wheelchair accessible for moving around the Rim, but the trails descending the canyon are steep, rocky, and narrow.
