Before you set your eyes on Havasu Falls and the other waterfalls along Havasu Creek on the Havasupai Reservation, you'll need to hike 11 miles through the desert.
Before you set off on your hike, you'll need to buy a permit from the Havasupai Tribe.
For a complete guide to the Havasu Falls hike, check out:

At the Hualapai Hilltop parking lot, you'll find an office and an outhouse, but no water and a very weak cell signal.
It's 11 miles from the Havasupai Trailhead to the campground.
It's 8 miles to the village of Supai.
The Havasupai Tribe maintains the long series of switchbacks you'll use to hike down into the canyon.
Along the way, you'll pass mule trains carrying supplies and hikers' luggage. For $400, you can reserve a mule to carry your gear. Reservations have to be made when you initially get your permit.
The Havasupai helicopter is never a guarantee, and you cannot reserve it.
It only flies certain days of the week, and you have to sign up and wait for your name to be called.
At the end of the trail, Havasu Falls appears and is the perfect welcome to the Havasupai Campground!

Hiked the switch backs during a full moon- the glow of the moon bouncing off the canyon walls. Definitely memorable. As you get closer to the village, it's just beautiful.

If I go back during the summer months, we'll definitely aim for a predawn hike (and hope for a bright moon!)

Hi, would you know how cold it gets during night in June ?

@JaredDillinghamTravel Ай бұрын

It's mild... in the 60s/70s at night. A lot of June/July campers choose to sleep in hammocks, rather than tents.

Awesome, short and sweet. Very informative. Is it possible to do it in a day ? Thanks

@JaredDillinghamTravel 2 ай бұрын

Not really. The helicopter takes locals and construction crews first, along with deliveries. Tourists are last on the list, and it goes down for maintenance and storms ... so you can never really rely on it.

@srivenkat3142 2 ай бұрын

@@JaredDillinghamTravel so are you saying that even if I book a trip by chopper I may not get to the village on the day I booked ?

@shaynetaylor947 Ай бұрын

Everyone I know who took the helicopter did fly the day they planned to, but they waited many hours (you have to check in for a flight between 10 and 1 (you can’t reserve ahead of time), and then it’s “first come, first served” for tourists, but other categories will be placed ahead of you-1) charter, 2) tribal consultants, 3) tribal members, 4) tourists. And those passengers show up through the day, bumping you back. You may wait til 5pm for your flight. Also, the helicopter doesn’t fly every day. You can call (AirWest Helicopters) to get their schedule. Right now, March through October 2024 flight days are Sun, Mon, Thu, and Fri. And you’re only allowed to fly on days you have a reservation.

I find it hard to believe anyone bringing a cooler into the canyon is a seasoned hiker. Lots of first-timers come here.

Disturbing reports of the pack animal maltreatment even this year in 2023. When the animals collapse from injury, dehydration, heat exhaustion, malnutrition, etc. they are abused, the packs cut off of them, and then they are left to die. Again, reports of this as recent as 2023 and prior to that 2019, as it was closed during the pandemic and only just opened up this year Feb 2023.
