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

This site is a bit sloped, so a 24 ft camper will need to be parked at the end of the turnout. Also, tenters/hikers will cut through your site regularly. However, this site gets better cell coverage and is close to the transept trail sunsets. Very quiet and well maintained... one of the best campgrounds.

Site 45 is one of those which the RV door opens into the road, but the sites are so far apart and heavily wooded, it doesn't matter. Nice and quiet. One of the best campgrounds I've been to.

Beautiful and scenic campground! Our site #6 was not great for trailers, cramped driveway and difficult to level.

Amazing campground. Literally at the rim of the Grand Canyon. Clean, with lots of space between shaded campsites. Campground is supported by good general store and hot (pay) showers.

One of the best NPS/FS campgrounds I've been too. Campsites are well spaced, very quiet for the amount of RVs around (as a tent camper), close to the rim, great shade from tall pines. The general store is great for supplies and right nearby for an easy walk.

Beautiful camping spot! We loved the campground - it was quiet, clean and beautiful. The camp store was well stocked! We will definitely be back for another visit.

Site C009 is a lovely, spacious site. Close enough to bathrooms, but not too close. Trees but enough open space to see the stars. Bathrooms are large and clean. Showers and laundry a little walk but do-able. Friendly staff. Have already recommended to friends.

North Rim Campground was a great choice for seeing the different side of the Grand Canyon with many large trees. We stayed at the tent only sites which the canyon edges were very close by that provided easy access to great views. General store carried basic supplies, had well maintained showers and bathrooms, and also had laundry services available. Unfortunately the water spigot for our area was non-operational and flush toilets were inconvenient from the tent only sites. The Grand Canyon Lodge was a highlight for us as they have great viewpoints of the canyon which made for beautiful sunsets.

This was the best campsite of the three I stayed in during my trip. Scenic campground. Several Aspen trees changing color for Autumn. Site not very level - better for tents. Bathrooms showing their age, but were functional and clean enough. Showers are a very welcome amenity. Not much privacy between sites, but camping on the Plateau is limited, so I’ll take what I can get.

Such a fantastic campground! We stayed in site 49. There was plenty of room for my 31' Airstream. We had a huge picnic table and lots of room to spread out. The brief walk to the Rim trail is pleasant. The Rim trail is fantastic! I took my GF who'd never been camping before and she was ecstatic. The campground staff were all professional, helpful and just great. The North Rim is impossible to describe. You just have to see it for yourself.
