Planning Tips

About Trailer Village Rv Park - South Rim

Trailer Village RV Park sits on the South Rim of Grand Canyon National Park, operated by Delaware North as the only full-hookup RV option inside the park. The high-elevation location puts guests within walking distance of rim trails and shuttle stops, with elk and deer regularly moving through the campground. Sites offer electric, water, and sewer connections, making this a practical base for exploring one of the world's most iconic landscapes.

Trailer Village RV Park is tailored primarily for RV camping, with features such as full hookups and paved pull-through sites. It is not well-suited for tent camping or group camping setups.

Elevation7000 ft above sea level

Natural Features and SceneryThe campground occupies a forested section of the Kaibab Plateau at 7,000 feet elevation. Ponderosa pines provide some shade, and paved paths connect directly to South Rim viewpoints. Wildlife is frequent: elk graze near sites, mule deer move through morning and evening, ravens call from the trees. The plateau's limestone base drops away into the canyon itself, exposing millions of years of rock layers visible from the rim. The forest creates a strange intimacy considering the vast geological theater just steps away.

Lodging & AccommodationsThe campground does not offer lodge-style accommodations, but it is centrally located near other facilities in Grand Canyon Village.

Programs & ActivitiesThe campground is conveniently located near the Grand Canyon Visitor Center, which offers a variety of cultural and educational programs.
