About North Rim Campground (AZ)

The North Rim Campground is located on the remote and rustic North Rim of Grand Canyon National Park in northern Arizona, approximately 210 miles (338 km) from Grand Canyon Village, AZ on the South Rim. It is nestled in a thick ponderosa and aspen forest just on the canyon's edge at an elevation of 8,200 feet. This facility is perfect for tent camping and smaller RVs. Due to its heavily forested location, large and/or high-profile RVs cannot be accommodated.  The maximum length in each site description is the combined length of both the RV/trailer and tow vehicle. Many sites are not level and have obstacles such as tight curves and narrow passages through trees.  Some sites may not accommodate trailer pop-outs or awnings.   The maximum vehicle length permitted on the Cape Royal Scenic Road, Widforss Trailhead, and North Kiabab Trailhead is 22 feet; plan accordingly if renting an RV if you wish to explore these other areas of the park.

Number of accommodations: 87

Great campground. From our place we had a view (throu the trees) on the grand canyon. Also perfect for hiking. We hiked to the Widforss Point in the morning, wich was absolute great. In 20 minutes you can also reach all the look outs, including Bright Angel Point.

Very nice campground but the camp host refused to honor the Recreation.gov policy that "No-shows after 24 hours will forfeit their reservation and the site will be released for resale." There were several unoccupied campsites with no-shows but we were not allowed to pay to use one of them instead of the no-show, so they went unused for several days. What a waste of public resources!

I wished there was a spot to do the dishes. I can't believe everybody is using disposables.

We stayed at the North Rim Campground at Site 18, less than a 4-minute walk from the Rim. Site is relatively flat. Be sure not to park off the asphalt or the camp host will have your head on a platter! The Transept Trail was right behind our campsite, and it's a wonderful walk to the Grand Canyon Lodge - about 1.5 miles one way. Once there, be sure to check out Bright Angel Point. Incredible views!!! Is a wide, paved trail and perfectly safe as long as you stay on the marked path. However, it is not a safe place to bring young children in my opinion. There are thousand foot drops on both sides of the trail with no guardrails except at a small bridge and at the point itself. Another wonderful excursion is the scenic drive -1.5 hours each way but worth it! Imperial Point and Cape Royal Point are spectacular. The North Rim has far fewer visitors so you won't have to fight to sit in viewing chairs or eat at the lodge. Wonderful!

Not to keep beating the same drum but this isn't an amusement park. The NPS does a wonderful job marking and grooming trails, but unless you're literally on a rock outcropping/point, there will be no rails. If you are scared of heights, the Grand Canyon may not be for you!

All the sites were nice. The tall trees protected us from the sun and wind to some extent. The tent campground restrooms were out of order, so it meant a bit of a hike to the other camp ground but no big deal.
This site is very convenient for all activities and hikes and is only yards from the rim.
