"Antelope Canyon" Top 5 Page for this destination Page Travelogue by Bernd_L
Page Travel Guide: 278 reviews and 634 photos
Drive a few kilometres on highway 98 out of Page into the Navajo Reservation. The landscape is interesting but not that spectacular and you never imagine what jewel you find around the corner. Leave highway 98 near the coal-power-plant and go on a small track till you reach a small hut where you can buy the tickets for the Antelope Canyon tour.
A tour guide leads you a few metres to a crack in the soil. This is the entrance to the canyon. Squeeze yourself through this narrow slot and climb down a ladder and you find yourself in another world.
Over millions of years, water has built this narrow gorge. In some places you can hardly walk - you have to twist your way around the corners.
The water is also the reason why the canyon is a bit dangerous. In 1996 a group of tourists was trapped inside when rainwater from a distant thunderstorm came very quickly. Only one person survived, because the water rose so fast, they couldn't escape. After this incident rope ladders have been installed, which will be thrown into the gorge in a case of emergency, in order to get people out.
And the colours fantastic - in particular when you visit the canyon around noon when the sun is high on the sky and illuminates the canyon perfectly.
So don't miss this breathtaking experience of the beauty as well as the power of nature when you are in Page.
