Situated near Page, Arizona, on Navajo land, Antelope Canyon is a mesmerizing natural slot canyon and a celebrated landmark in the American Southwest.

Famous for its extraordinary twisting corridors and striking formations such as fins, stalactites, and various speleothems, Antelope Canyon spans around 30 miles and is divided into four key sections. These sections include the well-known Upper and Lower Antelope Canyons and the less frequented Canyon X and Secret Antelope Canyon.

Formed over thousands of years by the forces of seasonal floods and wind, the canyon’s slender pathways stretch several hundred feet from its entrance. Renowned globally as one of the most spectacular slot canyons, Antelope Canyon is revered for its breathtaking beauty and distinctive geological structures.

Lake Powell, a man-made reservoir located on the Colorado River, is a key attraction nestled along the Utah-Arizona border. This artificial lake, resulting from the Glen Canyon Dam flooding Glen Canyon, is an integral component of the Glen Canyon National Recreation Area.

Celebrated as an idyllic destination for those seeking outdoor adventures and a connection with nature, Lake Powell is the United States’ second-largest artificial reservoir. It covers an expansive area of 653 square kilometers with a depth reaching up to 177.6 meters, and has the capacity to hold about 31,041 million cubic meters of water.

Each year, roughly two million visitors are captivated by Lake Powell’s extensive waters and picturesque landscape, making it a favored spot for both adventure and relaxation.

All our tour guides are professionally certified through the American Canoe Association (ACA) and the Professional Stand Up Paddle Association (PSUPA) for instruction, guiding, and water-safety. Each guide is first aid and CPR certified. Lake Powell Paddleboards and Kayaks holds a legal CUA Permit with Glen Canyon National Park Service.

Hi there We are a family of 5 (3 children aged 10, 8 and 5) and are flying in from the UK in August 2022. My current plan is to fly in to Las Vegas (via Hoover Dam) for 1 night then pick-up a rental car to drive to the Grand Canyon for 2 nights. I then plan to drive to Page for 1 night and would like to visit the Antelope Canyon and Horseshoe Bend. Please could you suggest how best to make this happen? Assuming we can leave GC area early (ish) we could get to Page for about midday. What could we do that afternoon? The next day we hope to fly out of Page/Flagstaff or another local airport (depends where we can drop the rental car) so it would be good to have a morning activity also. Do you have any suggestions for what might work? Any suggestions you may have would be very welcome! Is Antelope Canyon open now? Are the kayak tours suitable for children? Do you know any good value car rental companies that will do a 1-way rental? Many thanks for your help!

Hi Mary Jo, I would recommend dropping one night at the Grand Canyon and staying 2 nights in Page, AZ. I know that sounds crazy, but the fact is, you’d be doing a good chunk of your Grand Canyon sightseeing on the drive to Page, AZ. The shortest route takes you along the East Rim Drive of the Grand Canyon, where there are over half a dozen named Grand Canyon viewpoints you can stop at between Grand Canyon Village and Desert View Point. Upon exiting the park, you’ll be on Navajo Indian Tribal Land, where you’ll find lots of other photo ops as well, such as Chief Yellowhorse’s Souvenir Stand, the Cameron Trading Post, Chinle formation views, just to name a few. The distance from Grand Canyon South Rim to Page, AZ, is about 150 miles, but don’t be surprised if the drive takes you ~3.5-4 hours when you factor in all the stops. Unfortunately, there is a bit of bad news: the kayak tours do not allow kids under 7. The good news is there is a water-based activity that does welcome kids 4 and up: the Horseshoe Bend Raft Trip. This is a wonderful family-oriented raft trip that doesn’t traverse any rapids, but what it may lack in excitement if adequately compensates for in beautiful scenery and compelling history. You could then visit Horseshoe Bend anytime at your convenience before or after the raft trip. The Horseshoe Bend parking lot is open from sunrise to sunset, which in August, is 5:40 am and 7:20 pm respectively. The Antelope Canyons are open now, and a guided tour is required to visit the landside segments of the canyon. Be sure to book your Antelope Canyon tour ASAP as they are running at partial capacity to facilitate social distancing. Also, your options will be somewhat limited with a 5 YO in tow. Bringing Kids to Antelope Canyon RE: rental car companies that do 1-way rentals, they are out there. AVIS is the only operator out of the Page Municipal Airport, so I’d look there first. Contour Airlines is the sole air service provider in Page, AZ. They fly primarily to Phoenix but also offer seasonal service to/from Las Vegas. Hope that helps, I know it’s a lot to process. If you wish to contact me directly, you may do so at [email protected] Good luck and safe travels, Alley http://horseshoebend.com http://thewaveaz.com http://antelopecanyonboattours.com http://alstrompoint.com http://towerbutte.com http://canyonskywalk.com

How to plan an epic self-guided tour of Antelope Canyon

Thanks to amazing images of beams of light illuminating impossible sandstone walls, Antelope Canyon has become a very popular Arizona destination in recent years. On any given day, thousands of visitors flock to see this natural wonder near the town of Page in northern Arizona. As a result, guiding groups into Upper and Lower Antelope Canyon has become big business.

Those of us who are a little more adventurous can avoid the crowds and take a self-guided tour into Antelope Canyon. In this post, I’ll explain how to do it.

Is Antelope Canyon open for guided tours?

Yes. Although guided tours into Antelope Canyon were halted during the pandemic, the tour operators are back up and running at full capacity.

Book a tour of Antelope Canyon with one of these trusted Viator guides.

What’s the difference between Upper and Lower Antelope Canyon?

When you see jaw-dropping images of Arizona’s Antelope canyon like the one above, chances are good they were captured by someone on a tour of either Upper or Lower Antelope Canyon that was led by a local tour guide.

Photography pros contend that you’re much more likely to see the iconic “beam of light” in Upper Antelope than Lower.

Upper Antelope Canyon tends to be more popular than Lower Antelope Canyon, due in large part to it’s accessibility. Once you reach the Upper Antelope tour site, you can simply walk right into the slot canyon.

At Lower Antelope, visitors must navigate a series of stairs and ladders to enter and exit the site. Ironically, the Lower Antelope Canyon tour location is easier to access with your own vehicle. To reach Upper Antelope, you have to board a high clearance vehicle for a ride several miles over rugged terrain to the canyon opening.

Comparison of Upper and Lower Antelope Canyon

At either site, you can experience the gorgeous, twisting sandstone walls both are famous for. Depending on the time of year and time of day you visit, the hues will range from brown to orange to red. Lower Antelope is known to also display some shades of purple.

Drawbacks to guided tours of Antelope Canyon

If you schedule a guided tour, plan on spending $50 or more. Upper Antelope Canyon costs more than Lower Antelope due to higher demand.

Rigid timelines

When I read online reviews about Antelope Canyon tours, a common complaint is how rushed everything feels. One person said she felt like a cow in herd being prodded along in the stockyards.

Big groups and long lines

Antelope Canyon tours are now so popular that they’re almost always sold out. Since the lighting in the canyon is best around midday, those time slots are most in demand, especially in the Spring, Summer and Fall months when the sun is higher in the sky.

Plot twist: Did you know you can take a self-guided tour of Antelope Canyon by paddling a kayak or stand-up paddle board from Lake Powell?

The image below is not from a tour in either Lower or Upper Antelope Canyon. I captured it while on my own tour of Antelope Canyon by kayaking from Antelope Point Marina on Lake Powell . Keep reading to find out how you can do it, too.

What you need to know if you’re considering a self-guided tour of Antelope Canyon

If you want to see Antelope Canyon in person but want to bypass the guided tour experience, you have a great option: Paddle a kayak or stand-up paddle board from Antelope Point boat launch site to the end of Antelope Canyon cove, then hike up into the slot canyon.

Both Upper and Lower Antelope Canyon were carved out by water from flash floods over millions of years. Some flooding still happens every year during monsoon season, yet it’s rare to see standing water in the slot canyon. That means the water drains somewhere, right?

The secret to accessing Antelope Canyon without taking part in a tour is to paddle to the end of that cove in a kayak, then hike up the canyon from there.

If you look carefully at an aerial map of the region, you’ll see that Lower Antelope Canyon drains into a cove on the southern edge of Lake Powell. So, the secret to accessing Antelope Canyon without taking part in a tour is to paddle to the end of that cove in a kayak, then hike up the canyon from there.

It’s about four miles from the water’s edge to the  “Corkscrew”  feature that Lower Antelope Canyon is famous for. My buddy and I only hiked about a mile up the canyon due to time constraints. At that point, we began to encounter sections blocked with boulders and waist-deep pools that made it challenging to continue.

Advantages of self-guided tour in Antelope Canyon

• No reservations or advanced planning needed
• Smaller numbers of people in the canyon with you
• More flexible timetable; take as much, or little time as you want

Notice I did not say it is cheaper, or takes less time. The truth is, unless you own a kayak and have a  National Parks Pass  already, the self-guided option could cost you more than a guided tour.

Video slideshow: What you can expect on a self-guided tour to Antelope Canyon on Lake Powell

How to get to Antelope Canyon by kayak or stand-up paddleboard

• Start at Antelope Point launch ramp and paddle west along the rocky shore
• Stay close to the left side of the channel (waterway) and follow it for about a mile (1.6 km) until you see a buoy with a sign indicating the entrance to “Antelope Canyon”
• Take a left into the canyon and continue paddling for approximately another mile
• Beach your craft where the water meets the sand and start hiking into the slot canyon

Once in Antelope Canyon (cove) observe the “rules of the road” by keeping to the right. Although few motorized boats travel very far into the cove, they can catch you by surprise if they happen to be traveling quickly around one of the many blind corners. If you stay to the right as you’re supposed to, there’s little chance of getting run over.

After you reach the end of the cove, you can pull your kayak up on dry ground and hike up into Antelope Canyon. If you hike in about 30 minutes or so, you’ll see plenty of awe-inspiring rock formations that will confirm you are indeed inside Lower Antelope Canyon.

The section of the canyon that appears in many professional photographs is about 4 miles “upstream” from where the water meets the sand in the canyon. It would be quite a task to get that far and would take a lot of time. Plus, since there’s no clear boundary where Glen Canyon National Recreation Area ends and Navajo Nation Park begins, you run the risk of trespassing onto Navajo land.

Tip: the opening to Antelope Canyon cove is not really visible until you’re a couple hundred feet from it.

Where to start your self-guided Antelope Canyon adventure

The best place to begin this paddling and hiking adventure is  Antelope Point Launch Ramp . As of July 2021, the bottom end of the ramp was a couple dozen feet out of the water, so it’s closed to power boats until the water comes back up. You can drive to the bottom of the long ramp and unload your gear, then take your vehicle back to the large, paved parking lot near the top of the ramp.

Sample itinerary of a half-day (5 hour) kayaking and hiking tour of Antelope Canyon without a guide

• 8:30 a.m. – Arrive at Antelope Point Launch Ramp to rent or launch your craft
• 9:00 a.m. – Begin paddling toward Antelope Canyon cove
• 11:00 a.m. – Beach your kayak where the lake meets the dry wash of Antelope Canyon and begin hiking up the canyon
• 11:30 a.m. – Turn around and begin hiking back to your kayak
• 12:00 noon – Start paddling back to the launch ramp
• 2:00 p.m. – Return your kayak to the rental outfitter

What you need to know about renting a kayak at Lake Powell to explore Antelope Canyon

There are several kayak and stand-up paddle board rental companies based in Page, AZ that make it convenient for you to kayak to Antelope Canyon. Most of them will deliver kayaks directly to the shore of the lake for you. You just jump on and go, then return it by the agreed upon time. All will require a security deposit to make sure you bring the craft back, and a signed indemnification form, so you don’t sue their pants off if anything bad happens.

These rental companies will deliver a kayak or paddleboard to the lake shore for you:

• Hidden Canyon Kayak
• Lake Powell Paddleboards and Kayaks
• WazSUP Kayak Rental

Guided tour operators:

• Lake Powell Adventure Co.

Stay away from Antelope Point Marina

The first time I experienced this awesome adventure, I rented a kayak from Antelope Point Marina and paddled to Antelope Canyon from there. When I wrote this post originally, I suggested that others do the same.

Based on an experience had by a member of my immediate family, I can no longer recommend Antelope Point Marina for kayak rentals.

I’ll save you all the details but suffice it to say, they knowingly rented my brother a two-person, sit-on-top kayak that filled with water in the hull – the normally hollow area between the two layers of plastic that make up the kayak shell.

I was on the excursion with my brother and his family that day and we had to stop and drain water from the kayak six times to prevent it from sinking. Then the marina balked at refunding his money for the rental. The five kayaks he rented for others in the group presented no issues.

Be mindful of time zone changes

If you rent a kayak for a half day (5 hours), it’s very important to understand a quirky nuance about time changes in the Page area. Although many Indian reservations in Arizona acknowledge  Daylight Savings Time , the rest of the state does not. This presents a challenge in keeping track of time, especially if you rely on your smartphone.

Example of how it gets confusing : If you leave at Antelope Point Marina at noon and paddle for two hours, you’d expect your phone to tell you it’s 2 o’clock. More than likely it will tell you its 3 p.m., since you’ll be pinging off of towers located on the Navajo Reservation when you get to Antelope Canyon.

If you’re like me, you might start to panic thinking that you won’t get your rental back in time. My friend and I paddled our pecks off and thought we’d arrive back at the marina 15 minutes late. In reality, we were 45 minutes early. Doh! We could have hiked further up into the canyon.

If you happen to be taking your adventure during the winter months when Standard Time is in effect, your cell phone clock should show the correct time, regardless of where you’re at.

The best tip I can give is to rely on a watch that doesn’t get it’s time from a cell tower. Or use a stopwatch on your phone to keep track of the total time you spend on your adventure.

Recommended packing list for your self-guided Antelope Canyon adventure

If you follow an itinerary similar to the one I provided above, you won’t need to bring much with you. However, these items are essential:

• 2 liters of water (or more) per person
• Snacks, lunch or energy bars
• Water shoes , not hiking shoes (read why below)
• Sun block, sunglasses, hat, wind breaker
• Waterproof smartphone case or camera

If you’re renting gear, check with the rental company ahead of time to see if they’ll loan you a dry bag to keep all your valuables and snacks in. Most kayaks have a water bottle holder built in.

Hiking shoes are not needed for this hike and I discourage you from bringing them. That’s because you may pass through a few sections of the canyon with water over the top of your shoes. We saw several people heading back toward the lake in bare feet and carrying their hiking shoes in their hands. Even if there’s no standing water, most water shoes that cover the entire bottom of your foot are good enough to protect your feet from the sandy surface.

Pay close attention to weather

Although Antelope Canyon is in the desert, the biggest threat to your enjoyment (and your life) on this adventure is heavy rain. Since the ground in this region is so rocky, rain water quickly rushes into washes and slot canyons. The rapid movement of water through Antelope Canyon can be and has been deadly to unsuspecting sightseers. Along with rain often comes high wind; a very tough element to fight if you’re paddling a kayak across the lake.

Keep in mind, it doesn’t need to rain directly over the Antelope Canyon area in order for it to flood. As chronicled in the book  Breathe for Me by Pancho Quintana , a crew of 11 people died in 1997 when water flushed through the canyon after storm clouds dropped a lot of rain several miles away.

11 people died in 1997 when water flushed through the canyon

Upper and Lower Antelope Canyon attract thousands of tourists from around the world with its incredibly beautiful and alluring views and photo opps. If you embrace adventure and aren’t a fan of crowds, consider taking a self-guided kayak and hiking tour of Antelope Canyon. Follow the tips above and you’re sure to have an experience you’ll cherish for years.

Hello! Would this waterway be safe for a small child to navigate sitting passenger, riding with mom or dad. Life vest on.

There are way too many variables for me to give you a blanket answer. What kind of craft will you be in? What’s the child’s age and experience in water? What will the weather be like on the day you go? I’d suggest watching a few YouTube videos about this experience and do you what you feel is best for you and your family.

Thank you so much for this informative article. Maybe you can answer this question – if we were to hike the whole 4 miles to the Lower Antelope Canyon, would we be able to get inside?

I’m sorry I can’t answer definitively since I did not go the whole way. Nevertheless: there are two reasons I would suggest you not attempt it: 1) There’s an invisible boundary you’d be crossing from public land to tribal land (not ethical). 2) Others I talked to said that the rock formations form natural barriers that prevent you from hiking into the Lower Antelope section of the slot canyon I hope that helps.

Love it, thank you for sharing! I took the upper tour and felt very rushed. Would Kiev to go back and explore without a tour!

Thanks for the feedback. I’m a little claustrophobic and don’t do well with crowds in tight spaces, so this self-guided tour was right up my alley. I hope you get to check it out some time.

I wonder about rattlesnakes in the canyon and puddles? I’ve seen snakes in puddles at Fry Canyon, south of Flagstaff. Thanks again for a great article!

Thanks for encouraging feedback. I too have seen snakes in puddles gobbling up bugs. Thankfully we didn’t encounter any on this outing. 😎

I wondered about tromping through muddy puddles.

What a wonderful and informative article. Thanks.

Everything You Need to Know About Kayaking to Antelope Canyon

February 26, 2022 January 21, 2020 | Christopher Harvey

Last Updated on February 26, 2022 by Chris and Lindsay

Want to kayak Antelope Canyon from Lake Powell? Wonder if it is even possible to bypass the crowds and SUP to Antelope Canyon? 

Well, it IS possible and highly recommended that you join us and many others who have made the decision to add a little adventure into their visit to Antelope Canyon. 

February 2022 UPDATE: Please note that water levels in Lake Powell are INCREDIBLY low – to the point that the boat ramp at Antelope Point is completely exposed. This will have an impact on your experience. To date we are not aware of any closures to this opportunity but do be aware and check with local authorities on whether there are any restrictions in place during your planned time of visit. As always, keep the water and the canyons clean by leaving nothing behind.

Antelope Canyon is perhaps the most popular slot canyon in all of the Southwestern US.

Today you must pay quite a bit of money and join a formal tour if you want to see the upper canyon.

This means that you’re crammed into tours in which you don’t have the time or ability to take the iconic photos of Antelope Canyon that probably inspired your interest now. 

But if you are up for a little adventure, you can kayak or SUP Antelope Canyon for free (well, if you have your America the Beautiful National Park Pass , which you should have if you spend any amount of time traveling through the American West). 

Plus you can take all the time in the world to explore the magnificent canyon. And if you end up on a day like we had, you can have the whole canyon to yourself!

Here’s how.

Kayak Antelope Canyon From Lake Powell

Your Antelope Canyon kayak or SUP adventure begins in Page, Arizona.

If you are like us, you will have used Page as a staging area for all sorts of great adventures in the area – including camping at Lone Rock Beach on the fringe of the Utah border.

Check out this post to learn why you should make Lone Rock Beach Campground your headquarters for exploring the Lake Powell region and all the details you need to know on how to camp there!

We love exploring the great slot canyons of Utah and Arizona and so we’ve spent a fair amount of time in this part of the country.

Page has everything you need to set up for camping in the area.

Or simply to make quick day trip excursions like the one to kayak Antelope Canyon.

Getting There

From Page, you will head toward Antelope Point Marina, a short 15-minute drive from the center of town. Continue straight past the Navajo National Park Entrance (where you’ll flash your National Park Pass) and continue straight.

After a short distance, you’ll find that the road turns into a massive sloped boat ramp.

Feel free to head down to drop your gear off, if you’re confident that you can make the climb back out! 

We pulled into the parking lot at the top of the hill, where you will ultimately park once you drop your gear at the boat ramp, and set up for the trip. 

Paddling to Antelope Canyon

At the time we visited we only our awesome 2.5-seat inflatable kayak .

The ½ seat is because while the kayak is rated for 3 people, it’s really barely big enough for us and our sweet pup Everest who rides in the middle. 

Now we have our iROCKER inflatable SUP . And if we did this trip over, we would have taken both our iROCKER SUP and our kayak to have the best of both worlds. 

It is possible, and possibly even preferable, to SUP to Antelope Canyon on Lake Powell.

And if you don’t have your own water toys, it’s possible to rent kayaks or SUPs from a handful of companies in the area. 

1 Mile From The Boat Ramp

Once you launch your kayak or SUP at the boat ramp you are a brief 1-mile paddle from the entrance to Antelope Canyon.

You will head left (southwest) from the ramp and follow the left side of the lake. 

The water is clear and there are a handful of nice beach areas where you can stop and have a quiet picnic to yourself if you’d like.

Or you can press on to kayak Antelope Canyon – because that is where the scenery becomes quite spectacular. 

Almost one mile exactly into the paddle you will reach the entrance to Antelope Canyon on the left side of the lake.

The area is quite easily visible and is marked with a small buoy in the middle of the canyon channel. It’s likely you won’t be alone at this point in your paddle. 

Head into the canyon and enjoy the next two miles as you kayak or SUP Antelope Canyon’s magnificently carved walls. 

2 Miles of Paddling

From the lake entrance, you will have approximately 2 miles to kayak Antelope Canyon to reach the dry end of the canyon.

It will likely surprise you that people will be in boats and jet skis through most of this point of the canyon.

There are no wake signs posted. And hopefully, your company minds these signs. Even the big tour boats will make their way well into the canyon. 

But as you paddle you will notice that the canyon changes and becomes narrower with time. You’ll start to find yourself in more shade.

You’ll be able to hear echoes off the canyon walls.

And if you are like us, you’ll begin to get more and more excited about taking your kayak or SUP all the way into Antelope Canyon. 

Hiking Antelope Canyon

Depending on the time of year and the rainfall that will change the takeout point, you will reach the end of your paddle and will pull your kayak or SUP securely to shore.

From here an entirely new adventure begins – one in which seemingly few people begin. We love hiking the Utah slot canyons and have always wanted to hike Antelope Canyon.

So once you beach your kayak or SUP you are ready for the next portion of the adventure.

Your gear is quite safe among like-minded adventurers, so head off up the canyon by foot.

Like the river portion of Antelope Canyon, this part starts out wide and then quickly narrows the further back you go. 

We were able to walk several miles into the canyon, just shy of where the tourist section of the canyon begins.

And while we saw clear signs that people had been this far in their own adventures, there were no markers or signs telling us how far we could or could not go.

Essentially we hiked through the canyon until we reached the point where we had to do a little climbing of boulders. 

We decided that was far enough. Plus the sun was starting to set.

So with several miles to hike and the 3 additional miles to paddle, we decided it was best to turn around and head back toward our kayak. 

Don’t have time to kayak Antelope Canyon? Catch this day trip from Las Vegas to explore Antelope Canyon and Horseshoe Bend!

SUP Antelope Canyon

While we only had our kayak at the time of our first visit, the next time we return we will be eager to SUP Antelope Canyon as well.

Our iROCKER SUP has a kayak seat modification that allows us to convert the SUP into a kayak if we found we needed a little more comfort along the way. 

But as the paddle is only 3 miles each way, we found that taking a SUP to Antelope Canyon would be a great way to journey. 

Whether you kayak or SUP Antelope Canyon, be sure to have your GoPro and a handful of snacks and water.

You can paddle the entire trip in a few short hours. But if you are like us, you’re going to want to wander a bit as you make your way further up the canyon. 

We do advise you to plan this trip as soon as possible.

It is becoming more popular and, although sharing this information with you only increases the exposure of the paddling adventure, we think this world is spectacular and deserves to be explored!

Respect The Canyon (And Fellow Adventurers)

Please mind basic sustainable travel principles when you kayak Antelope Canyon.

Pack out whatever you pack in – trash, toilet paper, etc. You will find not so pretty places where human waste and toilet paper are left in crevices in the canyon.

If nature calls, try and carry the trash out, or at least bury the waste and biodegradable paper. 

Also, don’t disturb the landscape. This means staying on the beaten path (which is pretty remarkable in itself) and not adding graffiti to the canyon walls.

They have survived millions of years without us marking them up. So please respect the beauty of nature and leave it as it is. 

Aside from that, if you do happen to travel by boat or jet ski please mind the no-wake zone of the canyon.

Not only does this respect those of us who choose to SUP or kayak Antelope Canyon that are subject to your wake, but also it slows down the unnatural wear and erosion on the canyon itself.

It is also safer for everyone on the water in Antelope Canyon if boat traffic minds slower speeds. 

Beyond that, enjoy the exploration of Antelope Canyon.

You will see a part of the country that few people see and it will be well worth your time to wander this amazing and beautiful slot canyon.

12 Epic Things To Do In Page, AZ

L ast time we were in northern Arizona we missed visiting the city of Page, and we were excited to come back and check it out, especially after hearing so many amazing things to do in Page, AZ. 

We were not disappointed! From kayaking and paddle-boarding to canyon hikes and amazing views, there are awesome things to do in Page, Arizona, and despite its small town status, we never found ourselves feeling bored for a single minute of our visit. 

Page is also a great city to add to your Utah National Park Road Trip as it is very close to Utah and less than 2 hours from Zion National Park .

Top Picks For Things To Do In Page, Arizona

Lower Antelope Canyon Walking Tour

You won’t want to miss this lower Antelope Canyon walking tour. The Canyon is magical! The local guides are great and now where to take you to get the best pictures.

Click here for Lower Antelope Canyon Walking Tour Tickets

Sea Eagle 3 Person Inflatable Kayak

We have had ours for 4+ years and we love it! When in Page, Arizona you will use it for kayaking to the canyon and on Lake Powell. Since it is inflatable you can easily bring it with you.

Click Here To Check Out This Kayak On Amazon

Powell Museum

This first thing everyone should do when visiting the area is pay a visit to the Powell Museum. This museum serves as a welcome center and offers tons of information on things to do in the area, as well as exhibits on Colorado River history, the geology and paleontology of the area, the rich cultural history of this place, and more. 

While the museum is small and can easily be seen in only an hour or so, it’s a great introduction to the area. Best of all, the museum offers free admission! 

Glen Canyon Dam Visitor Center

Gotta love a free stop! And that is exactly what this can be. Head to the Carl Hayden Visitor Center and spend some time in the free museum, where you can learn about the Dam with a good amount of hands-on activities. A Junior Ranger program is available for younger visitors, and a gift shop sells fun souvenir items if you wish to do a bit of shopping. While you’re there, take in the amazing view of the dam and the Colorado River from the safety of the glass windows.

You can pay and sign up for a dam tour as well. We didn’t get a chance to do this, but it would be a great way to learn more about this iconic landmark. 

Kayak and Hike Antelope Canyon

If you are looking for a workout, some adventure and to save money and still see part of Antelope Canyon (for the whole Antelope Canyon experience you do need to book a tour with the Navajo Nation. But if you want to see a small part of the Canyon you will on this trip) this is the trip for you.

We rented a double kayak from Lake Powell Paddlebords and Kayaks and we also brought our inflatable kayak and 2 inflatable paddle-boards. We didn’t need a permit or anything with our own boards. They also have information about the route we took and how it all works.

They drop the kayaks off at the boat launch by Antelope Marina (not the marina but the public launch). It is free to park here with a NP pass or else it is $30. If you bring your own you can drive your truck down to the bottom and drop your kayak and paddle-boards off. We didn’t realize that and carried them all the way down!

You have to bring your boats down a sand hill to get to the water. The kayaks have a wheel so it isn’t too bad to get it down there. But we did see some people struggling and it is definitely harder on the way back up when you are done.

Kayaking and Hiking

You start off in more open water. It is very choppy and lots of boats going by causing more waves. It was hard to paddle! This takes about 30 – 45 minutes to get through.

After that you reach the canyon. It is very obvious where it is. Just stay to the left when you get in the water.

In the canyon the water is much calmer. Boats and jet skis can still go back there. But have to go 5 mph.

You paddle through the canyon until you reach the end. Here you can take your kayaks out and hike into the Canyon. We heard it is about 1.8-2 miles to reach the Navajo land – where you can’t go in (this is the part of Antelope Canyon that you book a tour for – listed below). We didn’t make it that far. We hiked about 30-40 minutes in & turned around.

The paddle back once we left the canyon and we’re back on the open water was hard since the wind had picked up! It was also recommended not to do this on the weekend. As it can be very busy with boats on the weekend.

We made it back. After that you have to drag tour kayak back up the sand hill. Again not easy but doable. Especially with 2 people.

Lots of effort but totally worth it! Paddling was about 4 miles round trip. It is recommended you book yourself a kayak or paddle-board ahead of time. You could also rent a boat or jet skis to get there. But we don’t recommend that. The kayaking & paddle-boarding was awesome.

We also packed lunch that we ate before hiking. Plus drinks & snacks to have throughout the trip. When we did this our kids were 14, 11, 11 and 9.

Antelope Canyon Tours

You’ll definitely want to take one of the guided Antelope Canyon tours . This gorgeous slot canyon is run by Navajo Nation Parks and Recreation and is an absolutely incredible sight to see. 

We opted for a lower canyon tour, which started at the guide station and heads down to a set of stairs that takes you into the canyon. The views are amazing!

There is so much color , and the way the light comes through the canyon is breathtaking. Your guide will tell you stories about the canyon and explain the history of the place, and there are plenty of amazing photo opportunities along the way. 

The tour is a bit pricey, but if you can do it, go for it! You will be glad you did. It really is an interesting and different kind of hike. The hike itself isn’t far and you go at a very slow pace, so assuming you can get down the sometimes-steep stairs and back up again, you should be fine.

Upper Antelope Canyon tours are also available, and are likely equally as amazing. 

Lake Powell

It is a little unusual to see this huge lake in the middle of the desert, but it is beautiful and one of the best lakes in Arizona ! Lake Powell is one of the many amazing things to check out in Glen Canyon National Recreation Area, and we highly recommend giving yourself a full day to play at the lake while admiring its beauty. 

While there are plenty of paid water sport activities and rental items available, we opted not to spend any money. Instead, we brought our own paddle-boards and kayaks and used those to fill our day with tons of water fun. 

In addition to fun on the water, the beach sand is also great for kids to play in. For sand play, we recommend Lone Rock Beach.

Horseshoe Bend

Also located in the Glen Canyon National Recreation Area, Horseshoe Bend is scary but absolutely beautiful! 

There is railing around one section of it, and we highly recommend staying behind that barrier. Don’t worry, you can get a good picture right from there! We couldn’t believe all the people going out by the edge. Be smart! Don’t let your kids out of your sight or anywhere near the edge.

The view is amazing, and it was recommended that we go in the middle of the day since that’s when the sun is in the right place and there aren’t a lot of shadows. It was a great tip!

Boat tours of Horseshoe Bend are also available. We would have loved to hop on one of these boat tours down on the water around the bend, as it looked incredible. I talked with one of the rangers at the Dam Visitor Center and she highly recommended it.

Another Horseshoe Bend tour option involves hanging out with Navajo Native Americans, trying some traditional food, and watching Native American dancing. This could also be incredibly cool and a great way to connect with the culture of the area. 

Rainbow Bridge National Monument

This awesome rock formation is a super cool thing to check out while in Page. It is one of the world’s largest natural bridges and has been an inspiration to people for hundreds of years. 

This NPS site is on the smaller side. However, it still offers plenty to see, do, and learn. During the summer months, ranger programs educate visitors on the history of the bridge, and a Junior Ranger program is available for the kids. There’s also a dinosaur footprint at one viewing area!

It should be noted that getting to this bridge does require a boat ride and a hike of at least one mile. Paid boat tours are available for those who don’t have a boat of their own. 

Grand Staircase-Escalante National Monument

An enormous and amazing place, Grand Staircase-Escalante National Monument is full of color, life, history, and pre history. Fossils of dinosaurs and prehistoric creatures have been found on this land, and the place is a goldmine of information for geologists and other scientists. For visitors, it’s a beautiful landscape with a lot of interesting rock formations and excellent visitor centers. 

One of our favorite visitor centers in this park is Big Water Visitor Center. This BLM visitor center is located on Highway 89 about 18 miles northwest of Page, and focuses on the dinosaurs that once called this area home. 

Vermilion Cliffs National Monument

Yet another amazing national monument, Vermillion Cliffs should make it onto your to-do list for sure. This is a gorgeous place and is home to “The Wave” , a striped sea of reds and yellows swooping across the Arizona desert located in the Coyote Buttes. It’s also home to a number of other amazing rock formation that are sure to leave you in awe of their beauty. 

During your time in Vermillion Cliffs National Monument, be sure to do some hiking and snap some photos. 

We also heard the Hanging Garden trail in Glen Canyon was amazing! Something to add to our list for next time!

Awesome Day Trips from Page, AZ

In addition to the many incredible natural areas mentioned above, there are also two excellent national parks that could be day trips from the town of Page. If you have extra time to fill, we highly recommend paying a visit to either Zion National Park or Grand Canyon National Park while you’re in the area. Both are about 2 or 2.5 hours from Page, and both are well worth seeing.

Page has a large number of wonderful local eateries. Not sure which ones to try? We’ve listed some of our favorites below. 

Big John’s Texas BBQ

It might seem a bit funny to go out for Texas barbecue while visiting Arizona, but trust us when we say this place is one you will want to try. The ribs are amazing, and if you like spicy things, you’ll love their hot sauce. 

Fiesta Mexicana

No trip to Arizona is complete without at least one visit to a Mexican restaurant. This is where Fiesta Mexicana comes into play. This place is a local favorite, and once you try the food you’ll understand why. 

Finally, there is BirdHouse. If you’re in search of comfort food, this is the place for you. Here you’ll find fried chicken, homestyle sides, and some awesome craft beer. 

Where to Stay in Page, AZ

Obviously, you will need someplace to rest your head at the end of your days of exploration. Fortunately, finding places to stay in Page isn’t difficult at all. 

Lone Rock Beach Campground

If you enjoy primitive camping, Lone Rock Beach Campground in Glen Canyon Recreation Area is the place for you. While the campground doesn’t offer much in the way of amenities, the views and location are absolutely spectacular! **Take note the water level has been way lower than what is in the picture – hopefully the levels will be higher again soon.**

Lake Powell Resort and Wahweap Marina

Prefer a more comfortable experience? Lake Powell Resort and Wahweap Marina might be right up your alley. The resort itself offers comfortable hotel rooms with all the amenities. Meanwhile, the marina offers houseboat rentals and the RV park gives campers a great place to park their rigs.
