Waterfall · Coconino County

"People of the Blue-Green Waters There’s a reason this is one of the most iconic spots along the Grand Canyon. Located on the Havasupai Indian Reservation and hidden deep within a 20-mile round-trip hike, Havasu Falls’ sparkling turquoise waters are a popular destination for seasoned hikers who come for the amazing views, rock climbing, and swimming. The hike to the falls and back is bestenjoyed with a preplanned route and plenty of stops for rest, food, and water. Because tribe members of the Havasupai, which means "people of the blue-green waters," maintain the trails and work to keep their land as unspoiled andpristine as possible, reservations for campsites are limited and day hikes and dronesare not allowed."
