Lower Antelope Canyon

Leach – A small town in Arizona that may be just a repeater on the road to the Grand Canyon for most, but for those of you who really love the natural wonders, it’s definitely worth a special trip. This trip focuses on the Lower Antelope Valley, a world-class geological landscape described in one sentence: “One must visit in one’s life, the power of nature”—no exaggeration! 🧡 Attraction Recommended: Antelope Canyon (Lower) When you first step into the Lower Antelope Valley, you feel like you are on another planet. The magnificent sandstone canyon is carved by thousands of years of wind and water, and the light and shadow dance between the canyons. The natural beauty is breathtaking. Walking in it feels the grandeur of nature going all out, sincerely suggest: life must-see list to add more. 📍Address: 86040 Leach, Arizona, USA ⏰ Opening Hours: - Summer: 06:15-16:45 - Winter: 08:45-14:45 🎫 Tickets: about USD541 (recommended online booking in advance, super popular during peak season!) Itinerary tips & real insights - Remember! Enter the valley must follow the tour team (can not drive into the valley), the guide will take you to the most beautiful sections, and will also point out the shooting location, like photography must bring a good phone, camera and stabilizer, light and shadow change quickly, to capture immediately 🥳 - The temperature in the canyon drops sharply and is humid, so wearing comfortable sneakers and a light jacket is super important. - The Lower Antelope Valley is more suitable for those who like to explore and experience wonders than the Upper Antelope Valley, the route has few climbs and narrow passages, but is relatively safe and suitable for most ordinary tourists. Practical information & Leach Transportation Food How to get there: The small town of Leach is only about a 10-minute drive from Antelope Valley, and it is recommended to depart by car or join a local small group, with many related tours available on the trip.com platform. The nearest big city is Flagstaff, you have to take the Greyhound bus to Leach and transfer. . Antelope Valley travel tips - Large amounts of water, drinks and food are prohibited in the canyon, only small bottles of water are allowed. - It is highly recommended to avoid joining the group during the lunch rush hour for more beautiful light and fewer people. - Tickets are recommended to be reserved more than three months in advance. When embracing the wonder of Antelope Valley, I sincerely thought: Travel is not only to see the scenery, but also to feel the power and beauty of nature, at least once in your life! 🧡 #LeachItinerary #LowerAntelopeValley #MustSee of Life #Arizona #Natural Wonders

📅 Itinerary Day1: We kicked off our Arizona trip by settling into the cozy Marble Canyon Motor Lodge. After a hearty dinner at the lodge’s diner, we took a charming walk to the Navajo Bridge Interpretive Center. The bridge area not only offered stunning views but also a quaint little market with authentic Navajo souvenirs. A perfect end to our first evening. Day2: We started our morning with a short 35-minute drive to the breathtaking Horseshoe Bend. We spent about an hour there, walking the trail and capturing incredible photos and videos. Afterward, we headed to Denny’s for lunch and found a convenient Walmart right across the street to stock up on supplies. The afternoon was spent exploring the local area before heading back to the lodge, where we ended the day by enjoying a beautiful sunset around the hotel’s cozy fire pit. Day3: Our final day took us on an early morning tour of the Lower and Upper Antelope Canyon, a mesmerizing two-and-a-half-hour adventure through stunning sandstone formations. We refueled with another meal at Denny’s and picked up some goodies at Walmart, conveniently located nearby. In the afternoon, we headed to Lake Powell to take in the serene beauty of the lake and its boats. On our way back, we were treated to a gorgeous mountain sunset from a scenic overlook before returning to the lodge for a restful night. 🏨 Accommodation : Marble Canyon Motor Lodge 🍴 Food Recommendations : Denny’s 📌 Tips : • Definitely book both Upper and Lower Antelope Canyon tours for the full experience. Each has its own unique beauty. • Horseshoe Bend is free to visit, so it’s a must-see and a great spot for amazing photos without any extra cost. • When visiting Lake Powell, take some time to explore the shoreline and enjoy the view of the boats. It’s a perfect spot to relax and soak in the scenery. • You’ll find beautiful handmade jewelry and souvenirs sold by local Navajo artisans, especially around Navajo Bridge and the scenic overlooks. These items are often sold directly by the locals without any markup, so you’re getting unique and authentic gifts. #travel #nature #arizona #usa #vacation #canyon
