About Grand Canyon Caverns

Grand Canyon Caverns sits a few miles east of Peach Springs along Route 66 in northern Arizona. The site is a limestone cave system that dates back tens of millions of years to a time when an inland sea covered the area. Visitors descend about 200 feet by elevator for guided tours that describe the cave's ancient water channels and the fossil and animal remains found there. The property is owned and operated by the Havasupai tribe and also includes an inn, restaurant, RV park, and campground.
