context_page_description: The following is a list of hiking trails that are, in whole or part, within the established boundaries of Grand Canyon National Park, located in Coconino and Mohave counties in the U.S. state of Arizona.
context_section_description: A corridor trail receives the highest hiking and stock use by visitors to the park and mule use by park concessionaires.  To accommodate this, the National Park Service regularly patrols and maintains corridor trails. Backcountry rangers recommend that  hikers taking their first trip into the inner canyon use one of the park's Corridor trails. These areas include three campgrounds: Indian Garden, Bright Angel, and Cottonwood, each of which have ranger stations, water, and emergency phones.
  The following are designated as corridor trails:
  Bright Angel Trail
  North Kaibab Trail
  Plateau Point Trail
  River Trail
  South Kaibab Trail
  The South Kaibab Trail and North Kaibab Trail are officially part of the Arizona Trail system which crosses the park from south to north, although they retain their original names in all park publications and signage.
