Havasu Falls, one of the most intriguing features of the Grand Canyon system, will be reopening to visitors after a three-year closure caused by the Covid-19 pandemic. But it's with a catch.
HAVASU FALLS, Ariz. — Havasu Falls, one of the most intriguing features of the Grand Canyon system, will be reopening to visitors after a three-year closure caused by the Covid-19 pandemic. But it's with a catch.
Havasu Falls is on the lands of the Havasupai Indian Reservation and is controlled by the tribe. The reservation is adjacent to but not part of Grand Canyon National Park. The tribe controls all access to the falls. On its official Facebook page, the tribe says that"the only way to get a reservation for 2023 is to purchase off the official transfer list. Open an account at HavasupaiReservations.com to see what is available."The response time for people to reschedule is tight, and the tribe warned that"this is a new check-in process and there may be some delays as we work through the system.
One person posted:"I appreciate the update but I really wish this would have been more timely. This really changes my travel plans, therefore my childcare arrangements. You are providing a 1 week notice. My reservation is for 2/3."Havasu Falls is just one part of the broader Havasupai Reservation. The unique health-care problems faced by Native American tribes contributed to the lengthy closure, the tribe noted.
It's a long hike from the canyon rim -- eight miles to the village of Supai and another two miles to the falls. And then you have to hike back up and out.
