The best waterfalls in Supai

Finally checked off one of the most expensive backpacking destinations in the US! Havasu Falls feels like a giant natural water park built in the middle of the desert. You can walk behind some of the waterfalls and even swim beneath them. On the way to Beaver Falls, there are three river crossings. The first one is fairly deep, so you may need to hold your backpack above your head to keep it dry. The other crossings are shallow. There are also a few sections that require some climbing, which makes the whole experience even more fun.

Do you need a sleeping bag?

Arizona summers are incredibly hot, but Havasu Falls has so much water that even though the forecast was over 30°C during the day, it didn't feel too bad. Everyone in our group only brought a sleeping liner. Personally, I still felt cold at night and ended up covering myself with extra clothes. Some friends thought a liner alone was enough.

Mooney Falls is one of several waterfalls found along Havasu Creek in Havasupai, within the Grand Canyon region. Reaching it requires a hike of more than 10 miles. Reservations are extremely limited and can be very difficult to secure.

**Beaver Falls, Arizona**

Beaver Falls is located along Havasu Creek in the Grand Canyon region of Arizona, USA. The rocks lining both sides of the creek glow with reddish hues, while the river itself flows with striking blue-green water. Scattered throughout the stream are layers of limestone travertine terraces, creating a series of natural pools and cascades.

Beaver Falls is the last of the five major waterfalls along Havasu Creek and lies closer to the bottom of the Grand Canyon. The creek’s vivid blue-green color comes from dissolved calcium carbonate, which reflects beautiful turquoise tones and creates an ever-changing landscape. Minerals are constantly deposited, eroded, and redeposited, forming new layers of rock and reshaping the falls over time.
