Antelope Canyon in Photos

Antelope Canyon is a pair of slot canyons cut into Navajo Sandstone on Navajo land just outside Page, Arizona. Upper Antelope, Tse'bighanilini or "the place where water runs through rocks," has a wider, walkable floor and is famous for its shafts of sunlight. Lower Antelope, Hasdez'twazi, is a narrower V-shaped slot that visitors work through on stairs. This gallery shows both sections as a visitor sees them: the light beams, the flowing walls, the thin strip of sky overhead, the stairs and the openings from outside. Every photo shows the canyon itself, with the section named in the caption where it is known, so you can decide which tour suits you or simply enjoy the shapes. Guided tours are mandatory in both canyons.
