Antelope Canyon is one of the most famous attractions in the Southwest. The red sandstone shows stunning formations, but the canyon is most popular for its beams that appear in summer time and when the sun reaches its highest point.

The slot canyon is located in Navajo Reservation and the natives are the only one offering tours into three different areas of the same canyon: Upper, Lower and X. Upper Antelope Canyon is the most accessible and you don't have to climb any ladders like in the narrow Lower Canyon. X Canyon is the shortest canyon, divided into two sections.

Booking a tour is the only chance for you to get into the area. Tours start from 65 Dollar. You can either book a hiking tour, where you will walk through the canyon with quite a lot of people. Backpacks, tripods and selfiesticks are prohibited on these tours. You can also book a photographer tour which is a lot more expensive, but you will be in the interesting locations at the right time, when the beams appear.

Although the Indians want $ 28 entry for their canyon, but the short visit of about an hour worth it. The sandstone formations formed by the water and wind are so fantastic, and the light reflections seen by the naked eye and seen by the camera create these stunning images.

Admission prices have risen dramatically. The cheapest tour, including taxes, costs approx. $ 50 in the Lower Canyon.
The beams (incidence of sun rays), which can be seen in some pictures, can mainly be seen in the Upper Canyon at lunchtime in summer.
