Angels Window Details
This natural arch offers a keyhole view of the Colorado River, best visible from a side path on the trail to Cape Royal. You also can walk the half-mile trail over the arch and out to the tip of this narrow peninsula of Kaibab limestone for different perspectives on the canyon. If you're afraid of heights, note that the trail over the arch is narrow, and that 1,000-foot drops fall away on either side.
