Heading to the Grand Canyon

The most widely recognized approach to get toward the South Rim of the Grand Canyon is via auto.

From Flagstaff you have a decision between three courses:

By means of AZ Hwy 64 N and US 180 W: Take Interstate 40 west from Flagstaff heading out around 30 miles to Exit 164 for the City of Williams and Arizona State Highway 64 (a sign will guide you to go straight on Hwy 64 North for the Grand Canyon). After around 50 miles U.S. Interstate 180 will converge into State Highway 64 and the street will get to be U.S. Expressway 180.

By means of US Hwy 180: An option course is to get on US Hwy 180 West and tail it the distance to the Grand Canyon. This course is somewhat more than 70 miles and relying on activity can be ten minutes or so speedier than the course portrayed previously. For reasons unknown my GPS and most maps appear to give the Hwy 64 N and 180 W depicted above as the primary choice however I lean toward taking 180 W the distance.

By means of US 89 N and AZ 64 W: This course is about the same separation at number 1 above however is around 10 to 15 minutes longer driving time. It is likewise the most beautiful with Sunset Crater Volcano National Monument, Wupatki National Monument (Indian vestiges) and Grand Canyon of the Little Colorado all accessible as discretionary short invasions off the principle streets (the streets to these are cleared).

In the wake of going around 50 miles and just before you get to Cameron there will be an indication to turn left for AZ HWY 64 W (Desert View Dr.). Take a left hand turn onto AZ 64 W and drive, for the most part up slope, around 30 miles toward the east passage door to the Grand Canyon south edge.
