There are no milling crowds at Toroweap, also spelled Tuweep or Tuweap. And it boasts the best views of the Grand Canyon from the rim. Yet this destination should only be considered by families in search of solitude and adrenaline. It is difficult to reach. There are no guardrails, anywhere. Camping is primitive. And while the rim trails are graded easy, the short hike into the canyon is nothing short of extreme. In short, Toroweap is a challenging destination that may only be appropriate for families with older teens willing and prepared to test their backcountry adventure skills.
