Grand Canyon West All-Access: Skywalk, Zipline & Eagle Point Views
Walk the Skywalk, launch down a zipline and watch the Colorado River slice the canyon from Eagle Point and Guano Point. This all-access ticket combines Hualapai culture, engineered thrills and raw canyon vistas for a full-day field trip into one of North America’s deepest kitchens of rock.
The Experience
Before You Go
Arrive early for light and space
First light reduces crowds on the Skywalk and Guano Point and gives you cleaner air for photos; parking fills by mid-morning.
Bring at least 2 liters of water
Shade is limited and the high desert sun can dehydrate you faster than you expect—hydrate before and during your visit.
Wear sturdy, closed-toe shoes
Walkways are paved but Guano Point and unguarded edges have loose rock—grippy shoes prevent slips.
Use credits strategically
The $10 meal and merchandise credits only apply to $20+ tabs—combine purchases or order from on-site cafes to avoid wasted credit.

Conservation Note
The Hualapai Tribe manages visitor access to protect cultural sites and fragile desert ecology; follow trails, pack out trash and support tribal vendors to keep revenue local.
Grand Canyon West sits on Hualapai land; the site includes remnants of a historic guano-mining tram and contemporary tribal programming that connects visitors to living Hualapai culture.
