Antelope Canyon Slot Canyon
Antelope Canyon is an example of a geological curiosity known as a “ slot canyon.” As the name suggests, slot canyons are tiny canyons formed when water finds its. Because Antelope Canyon is located in Navajo territory, it is 100% mandatory to book a tour through the local operators in the area. The cost is around $30 per person. All tours essentially take the same route walking through the slot canyons. There are two areas, the upper Antelope canyon and the lower Antelope Canyon. I elected with the upper.
NAVAJO NATION PARKS AND RECREATION WILL REMAIN CLOSED UNTIL FURTHER NOTICE.
Antelope is the most visited slot canyon in the Southwest, partly because it is easily accessible and by far the most publicized, and also since it is extremely beautiful, with just the right combination of depth, width, length, rock color and ambient light; many other slot canyons are deeper, narrower or longer, and some have rock that is even more colorful and sculptured, but here conditions are ideal.
COVID-19 update:
All areas of the Antelope Canyon are only accessible via guided tour. Tour guides are mandatory. To make arrangements for your visit to Antelope Canyon, please select a guided tour operator from our list below.
