If a short, easy hike to some great views of the North Rim of the Grand Canyon appeals to you, this is your hike.
From the parking area, follow the paved path towards Cape Royal viewpoint. Although the path doesn't remain paved, it is easy to follow and well signed for the duration. To the left, there is a spur trail to Angels Window viewpoint. Continuing straight leads to the views from Point Royal.
These two viewpoints reveal good views of Vishnu temple, furnace flats, and the Unkar Delta area of the Grand Canyon. You can also see the Colorado River from here. After enjoying the views, return the way you came.
