Itinerary description
It’s difficult because of the length and elevation gain and loss. But it’s not a technical hike.
I advise you to start at Bright Angel trailhead and go down to the bridge and then up through South Kaibab trail , this way leaving the South Rim part for the end of your hike, in case you limited by a day light so was I (sunset was at 18.30) so I saved this part for the end, it’s paved and easy to walk on.
There are many restrooms on the trail. I made this all in one day because this way i did not need a permit to stay overnight.
This time includes about two hours of total breaks I made.
