A Fragile Environment - Subject to Flash Floods

Because of flood damage that took place during 2018, 2019 and 2022, some areas in Havasu canyon are OFF-LIMITS to visitors due to continuing repair work or unstable ground condition. Immediate closure of the canyon is possible at any given time during your visit. Visitors to Havasu Canyon assume all risks while in the canyon and should come prepared.

Supai Village

Located within Havasu Canyon, a large tributary on the south side of the Colorado River, Supai Village is not accessible by road. The Havasupai Tribe administers the land, which lies outside the boundary and jurisdiction of Grand Canyon National Park.

The Havasupai Tribe's website is located here:

There are many more reservation requests than available campground spaces. The impact of visitors in the canyon, 2018 flood damage, and the cost of maintaining trails and visitor services has been overwhelming.

An account with Havasupai Reservations is required to create a 2024 campground reservation.
