    Tips

    Hiking

    A small shelter with comfortable wooden benches is located here at Santa Maria Spring, a spring that pours into a square tub. The water is of very good quality and the benches invite you to take a breather for a long time. Although the water is clear and cool, it should be treated before you consume it – just like every other water source in the backcountry.

    Hiking

    Please note that although there is water here it is not potable as is. If you plan on drinking water from this spring you will need to treat it before consuming. And as always when hiking in the Grand Canyon, take much more water than you think you'll need. Hiking back up when you're tired and thirsty is the hardest part.
