Top Observation Decks in Arizona

I recommend wearing shoes with good grip. The Skywalk can be slippery at times, and I saw a couple of people nearly lose their balance

Get there at sunrise if you can; the colors are stunning and you'll avoid the crowds that build quickly. It's worth the early wake-up!

Bring a refillable water bottle; the prices for drinks are steep inside the park. There's a water station nearby to help you stay hydrated.

Wear comfortable shoes! The area is bigger than it seems, and you'll want to explore more than just Mather Point without your feet screaming at you later.

My advice is to bring some snacks and water. The café nearby was super overpriced, and there aren't too many options unless you go back to the village.

Pack a picnic to enjoy while soaking in the views. There's nothing better than having lunch with a perfect Grand Canyon backdrop. Just make sure to bring some trash bags to keep the place clean

Check the weather before you go. The day I visited it unexpectedly got windy and it was a bit chilly at the lookout. Dressing in layers saved me!

Make sure to wear good hiking shoes. I didn't and my feet were sore by the end. Having that grip makes a big difference on those rocky parts, trust me!

My advice is to wear sturdy shoes. The trails around Mohave Point can be uneven, and you don’t want to miss those photo ops because you’re worried about tripping!

Get to Powell Point around sunrise or sunset for the best views. I noticed that the lighting gives a totally different vibe and you'll get some amazing pics. Just don't forget your camera battery
