Like something you see in a dream, a very peaceful and easy place to swim and relax. I love the lush greenery growing up out of the water. I want one in my back yard.
I have seen the changes over many years...and after the dam break several years ago the creek changed course and it is dry waiting for another shift in the creek...who knows when.
It was a short hike from the village ideal for after dinner.The falls are beautifull. On the trail when you get to a fork in the road-go left.
There is absolutely nothing bad I can say about Navajo Falls. It is a spectacular place of natural beauty that you should not miss. The hike there is truly stunning as well, it will make you feel closer to the Grand Canyon, you will gain a personal relationship to the canyon if you do this trip!
Loved this area. Most do not go here so we had it all to ourselves. The water is not as blue but it is beautiful. We took inner tubes and floated around peacefully for a couple of hours. There is a lot of plant life in the water here but it was not bothersome. Not too far from the village and the path down is not as clear as with the other falls. It feels like Hawaii to me. Beautiful area.
The falls are everything here, they are wonderful and are what we hoped for, as far as the indian village, disgusting. Enjoy the falls, stay there as long as you can, they are worth it.
After a long hike, 11 miles, it is nice and cool. Once in you don't want to get out during the summer months.
The color and beauty of this waterfall will make you jaw drop....and you can imagine how the Eden was
Navajo Falls is the first set of cascading waterfalls you will encounter on your hike to the more impressive Havasu and Mooney Falls. It is just a bit over a mile hike from the village over a mostly flat trail.It makes for a nice pitstop and it is very picturesque. There are no bathrooms or snack shops here! Please don't litter!Sorry, no day hikers into the village. You are required to spend at least a night at the lodge or campgrounds.
Navajo Falls no longer exists. In 2008, a flash flood change the course of Havasu Creek, leaving Navajo Falls high and dry. In its place, two new waterfalls were created: Upper Navajo Falls (aka New Navajo Falls) and Lower Navajo Falls (aka Rock Falls). As I write this in 2014, the pictures on tripadvisor are primarily of Lower Navajo Falls.Lower Navajo Falls is more accessible, and is good for a swim. Some people dive from its top (about 25 feet), but there are many reports of injuries. On my hike into Supai, I met someone going the other way. He had jumped off the top of Lower Navajo, and struck some unseen underwater rocks. His knee was bad enough that he had trouble walking, and I saw cuts all along his lower leg.
