Havasupai Falls is a hidden gem tucked away the valleys of Arizona’s Grand Canyon, 1.5 miles away from Supai Village, part of the Havasupai Indian Reservation. The name “Havasupai” means “people of blue-green waters.” Limestones in the water helped create the blue-green color you will find at Havasupai waterfalls. Havasu Falls is the most famous of all the waterfalls along the Havasu Creek, but there are many other waterfalls in the Havasupai area. It is hard to believe such beauty exists, especially in the arid region of the Grand Canyon. It was totally worth it! The waterfalls really do look like the pictures you see online – no filters needed!
