Sumidero Canyon is a deep natural canyon located in the southern Mexico state of Chiapas. The canyon's creation began around the same time as the Grand Canyon, by a crack in the area's crust and subsequent erosion by the Grijalva River, which still runs through the canyon. Sumidero Canyon has vertical walls which reach as high as 3,300 ft, with the river turning up to 90 degrees at a time during the 8.1 mi length of the narrow passage.
We loved doing the two hour high speed boat trip up Sumidero Canyon. On the way we had to hold on to our hats, saw sheer cliffs, lots of birds, monkeys playing, the Christmas tree waterfall, and other amazing nature sights.
