Brilliant turquoise water. Havasu Falls glows an amazing bright blue-green color because minerals in the water catch and reflect sunlight in a special way, making it look almost unreal.
Deep in the canyon. The waterfall is located within the Grand Canyon, tucked away in a remote area that you can only reach by hiking or taking a helicopter.
Havasupai tribal home. Havasu Falls is on land that belongs to the Havasupai people, a Native American tribe who have lived in the Grand Canyon region for hundreds of years.
Popular hiking destination. Adventurous hikers trek many miles to see the waterfall and swim in the cool pools below it, making it one of the most famous hidden gems in Arizona.
Part of Havasu Creek. The waterfall is created by Havasu Creek, which flows through the canyon and is known for having unusually colorful water compared to other streams in the area.
