Havasu Falls Trip

Havasu Falls or Havasupai Falls Grand Canyon

The people of the blue-green water (Havasu means “Blue-Green Water” and Pai “people”) have a beautiful and remote life, isolated from the world. This may have been one of the most beautiful places you have seen in nature.

Havasupai Falls is definitely a bucket-list destination. You should definitely go here once in your lifetime. Pristine water and picturesque location in the middle of the desert.

Yes, the 10 mile hike is not for the faint of heart, but if you begin early in the morning you can avoid the sun and really enjoy the landscape.

Havasu Falls Info

Hiking Havasupai Falls is very challenging and rewarding. The hike is long and in a dry desert for at least 10 miles. Hike in the early morning or after 5 pm in the heat of summer. Hiking down is not really hard, the hardest part of the entire Havasupai Falls hike is on the way out.

If you want everything to be taken care of. Including permit, tent and food, you can hire a tour guide from Pygmy Guides or the Wildland Trekking Company.
