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

You can escape the Disneyland of the South Rim by visiting the campground at the North Rim. This lovely alternative includes large wooded campsites set at substantial distances from each other, avoiding the noise and overcrowding we found at campgrounds like Bryce Canyon’s. The ranger staff were professional, friendly, and informative. Bathrooms and toilets clean and numerous. The camp store was well stocked at open 7 to 7. Currently the showers and laundromat are closed due to a water main break, but drinking water and bathroom facilities are functioning normally. The campground is located next to the rim trail on Transept Canyon, which takes you in 1.5 miles to Bright Angel Point and spectacular views of the Grand Canyon. Highly recommended.

Great wooded campground, close to a lot of hiking. One trail goes between the campground and the rim. Excellent sunset views!

The North Rim camp was very pleasant. Staff was friendly and check in was smooth. Although water supply was limited due to pipe breakage, we were still able to make things work. Restrooms had running water for sink and toilets, which was nice. Definitely recommend for stay on the best side of the Canyon.

It’s a beautiful campground. The sites are spacious and the staff was very friendly and helpful. We really didn’t want to leave when out time was up. We would love to go back some day.

Staff is very courteous and helpful. Camp store is well stocked. The tent sites are well spaced with level tent pads (easily the nicest tent sites I've seen). If you're looking for some seclusion, I highly recommend the hike from camp out to Uncle Jim's Overlook (I didn't see another person for about 4 hours).

Large sites. Convenient water and bathrooms. Also a great camp store right there. Loved hiking to the lodge and back on the Transept trail and bridle path. Also a short hike to the North Kaibab trailhead!

This was an amazing campground! We could take a short walk from our campsite to the canyon every night to watch the sunset! The sites were spacious and beautiful!
