Antelope Canyon
Upper Antelope Canyon’s curved sandstone walls glow above a sandy floor, with seasonal sunbeams reaching into the narrow slot.
Only authorized Navajo Parks guides may enter; book ahead and follow your operator’s meeting instructions. Aim upward where the walls curve together, keeping a thin line of sky in the frame. The exit includes stairs and a short climb, and flash floods can arrive from distant rain. Only clear bags are allowed; tripods, monopods, selfie sticks, drones and pets are prohibited.
