Arizona is known (among other things) as a dry, hot, inland desert state, but as a state with crystal blue lagoons and waterfalls? Not as much. So I was surprised to find one of the nicest water pools in Supai, Ariz. Havasu waterfalls is located in the Native Havasupai Reserve in a remote location that is only accessible with a permit and an overnight stay at the campsite or lodge in the Supai Village. Prepare for a high-intensity and challenging hike to the falls. Bring your own water and snacks as you will be en route for four hours.
During your adventure you will see three magnificent waterfalls: Lower Navajo, which is 15 meters high, and the two smaller Havasu waterfalls cascade into a waterfall beautiful turquoise pool. Unfortunately, with COVID-19 still a risk, Havasu Falls will remain closed until 2022. But people come from all over the world to see these cases, which means it’s difficult to get a permit, so it’s not a bad idea to start planning now for next year.
