Adventure travel to Grand Canyon

Grand Canyon contains 129 vegetation communities, and the composition and distribution of plant species is influenced by climate, geomorphology and geology. There are approximately 1,737 known species of vascular plants, 167 species of fungi, 64 species of moss and 195 species of lichen found in Grand Canyon National Park. This variety is largely due to the 8,000 foot elevation change from the river up to the highest point on the North Rim. Grand Canyon boasts a dozen endemic plants (known only within the Park's boundaries) while only ten percent of the Park's flora is exotic. Sixty-three plants found here have been given special status by the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service.

And there is no better way to experience it than on foot, at a pace that invites exploration and awakens the senses. This imaginative adventure captures the splendor of the Grand Canyon's South Rim and its most revered tributary, Havasu Canyon--an isolated oasis of aquamarine waterfalls.

Adventure travel package that theworldoutdoors.com offer to us:

Day 1

Grand Canyon. From our rendezvous in Flagstaff, we drive to the South Rim. Filled with anticipation, we walk to the canyon's edge. There, spread out for endless miles, is an ever-changing, colorful 5,000-foot-deep chasm. The canyon's immensity is awesome, its boldness overwhelming.

Day 2

Grand Canyon. Up early, we catch a spectacular sunrise before descending into the heart of the canyon on the South Kaibab Trail. Experience the inspiring depth and timeless beauty of the Grand Canyon when you journey below the rim and take in the views from Cedar Ridge and Skeleton Point.

Days 3-4

Grand Canyon-Havasu Canyon. Through a visual timetable of geologic formations, we continue on the historic Hermit Trail. We then depart for a three-day exploration of Havasu Canyon. Pack animals transport our gear, so we only have to carry a daypack to our remote Native American lodge in Supai village.

Days 5-6

Havasu Canyon-Flagstaff. Havasu Canyon is an oasis of a clear running stream, lush vegetation and spectacular waterfalls. Enjoy a refreshing swim and revel in this Shangri-la-like setting, or continue downstream as the trail beckons. Bidding farewell to this canyon paradise, we hike back up to Haualapai Hilltop and a shuttle back to Flagstaff.

Have a nice adventure or travel to Grand Canyon. :)
