Who ever would have guessed that at the base of the Grand Canyon are abundant waterfalls and a desert oasis? The only way to see this natural sanctuary is to hike down the canyon with expert guides leading the way, pointing out interesting facts along the way. Everything is included in this tour - even lunch, so just bring your hiking boots and away you go!
Explore little known springs hidden in the depths of the Grand Canyon. Abundant shade, maidenhair fern, crimson monkey flower and wild grapes surround these rare water sources. Over 80% of the canyon's biodiversity surrounds these springs. The trail drops steeply at first, but levels out nicely for the second half of the hike.
