The walls of the Grand Canyon vary significantly in height, generally ranging from about 1,000 to over 6,000 feet (300 to 1,800 meters) above the Colorado River. The North Rim is typically higher, with elevations reaching around 8,000 feet (2,400 meters), while the South Rim sits at approximately 7,000 feet (2,134 meters). The steep cliffs and dramatic formations create a stunning and varied landscape throughout the canyon.
