At its deepest point it is over a mile.

Hopi Point painting at the Grand Canyon by Widford.........How much is it worth?
the grand canyon formed over millions and millions of years ago
Colca canyon in Peru is 10500 feet in depth
The floor of the Canyon reaches a depth of about 6,000 feet.
The Colca Canyon is more than twice as deep as the Grand Canyon. This canyon is located in the Andes Mountains of southern Peru. Its depth is over 13,000 feet.
The Grand Canyon is located in northwestern Arizona.
The biggest canyon on Mars, Valles Marineris, is much larger than the Grand Canyon on Earth. Valles Marineris stretches over 2,500 miles in length, up to 7 miles in depth, and reaches widths of up to 120 miles. In contrast, the Grand Canyon is approximately 277 miles long, 18 miles wide, and has a depth of about 1 mile.
Its greatest depth is closer to 1800 meters.
It reaches a depth of 6,000 feet.
Linville Gorge North Carolina
The average depth in the Grand Canyon National Park is about 4000 ft. It is up to 6000 ft. deep at the deepest point.
At no point does it reach that depth. The deepest point is usually listed as 6,000 feet.
The answer depends largely on where you are along the Canyon...Grand Canyon Village is on the South Rim of the Grand Canyon at an elevation just short of 7,000 feet. The river is about 2,000 feet above sea level, so the depth of the Canyon from Grand Canyon Village is around 5,000 feet. North Rim, near where Grand Canyon Lodge is, is about 1,000 feet higher than South Rim, making North rim to the bottom of the canyon 6,000 feet down.
It is the only place on earth that has been carved out by water erosion to such a great depth and area.
