While Antelope Canyon garners the bulk of the slot-canyon attention, it is by no means the only one of its kind near Page, AZ. We believe that Buckskin Gulch offers all of the splendor and awe, without the crowds.
The trail-head for Buckskin is approximately 45 miles outside of Page, AZ - combination of highway and rough off-road travel. Once at the trail-head, you will hike for approximately 5-6+ miles total to experience the longest and deepest slot-canyon in the world! Intermediate to advanced hikers with moderate physical fitness levels only.
Large group and family discounts available. All times listed are Arizona times. Click here for current AZ time.
*Note - Buckskin Gulch is open to the public, but we recommend booking with a certified tour company for safety and historical information about the area. If you choose to make this hike on your own, a permit is required and can be purchased by clicking here. Please check regional weather before going, as slot canyons can receive violent flash-floods during times of rain.
