There is a camping area near the Phantom Ranch. Hike across the famous Colorado River bridge. The ranch is rustic, no frills accomodations. This place is awesome! Overnight hikers may arrange to stay at Phantom Ranch. Bring light crunchy, munchy food, bread, cheese, prepared meat such as pepperoni. Heavy food is not recommended such as canned goods. You will be amazed at how heavy a backpack gets after an hour or so hiking in a desert climate. By the way, all refuse that you bring into the Canyon must be taken out by you. Littering is a huge NO, NO and clearly not cool. Word to the wise bring 2 or 3 small handheld flashlights. There are no streetlights in the Canyon which can be pitch black at night. Do not hike at night. Stay where you are at sunset. Enjoy the beauty and extraordinary peacefulness of the Canyon. Please do not eat the vegetation and cactus fruits. Let's preserve this beautiful place forever, for all our future generations to see. Reservations for meals and lodging are required. A backcountry permit is not required for overnight stays at the dormitories or cabins at Phantom Ranch. Call 303-297-2757 or 888-297-2757.
