HAVASU FALLS, ARIZONA
Nothing about the Grand Canyon can disappoint us, and Havasu Falls makes no exception. Located on the 188,000-acre tribal reserve of the Havasupai people, long considered the guardians of the Grand Canyon, the falls fulfill a unique getaway for hikers that’s unlike any other in the United States.
The spectacular falls aren’t easy to get to. They require a 10-mile hike each way, so the journey isn’t for the weak. But you can reach them on foot or horseback, and your best bet is to go with a local guide like Wildland Trekking to handle all of the logistics.
This business even offers a helicopter option if you want to cut down on the hiking to just two miles. One thing’s for sure. This is one of the most picturesque swimming holes you will find in the United States!
