Navajo Falls

Foliage obstructing the base of Navajo Falls



Navajo Falls is the first major waterfall we saw as we followed the Havasu Creek downstream from Supai Village in the Havasupai Reservation. It tumbles some 75ft through thick brush, which conspires to make photographing the waterfall a bit difficult as you can tell from the photos on this page. For no matter where you go, you're not going to get a full view of the waterfall due to the foliage surrounding it.

Roughly 3/4-mile of hiking downstream from Supai Village, there's an unsigned spur loop that descends closer to another steeper path that takes you right to the base of the waterfall. I saw that if we wanted to get closer to the base of the waterfall, we either had to balance on logs or just wade in the creek. And we did neither.

Directions: This waterfall shares the same trailhead and hiking trail as Havasu Falls. So see the
Havasu Falls page for both the driving directions and the trail descriptions up to Supai Village.

Update (5/2009)! Devastating floods in late Summer of 2008 have caused the closure and subsequent re-opening of the Havasupai Indian Reservation to visitors. In the wake of the floods, this falls no longer flows as debris has diverted the feeding creek away from the falls. In its place are now cliffs and dead foliage, but there are two new waterfalls nearby in the canyon (read more about these falls here).
