Description

The spectacular waterfalls are in Havasu Canyon, a large tributary on the south side of the Colorado River within the Havasupai Havasupai  Indian Reservation. The water is sacred to the Havasupai (people of the blue-green waters) and is believed t flows not only through the land, but through each tribal member.

The falls are accessible only by helicopter or by hiking down Havasupai Trail. From Havasupai Campground Parking Lot, Hill Top, the trail drops steeply in the canyon 2,000 ft (610 m). It is 8 miles down and another 2 miles to either campground.

For helicopter rides, passengers are served on a first-come, first- served basis and there are priorities in loading passengers.  Tribal members and tribal business are accommodated before seats are made available to tourists and visitors.

The Havasupai Tribe administers the land and permits must be acquired to enter Supai Canyon. Reservations are required (usually made many months in advance). If you hike down without reservations, you will be excorted out at your own expense. For more reservations and pricing information for Supai Village and the falls at Havasupai, visit http://theofficialhavasupaitribe.com/
