Only 10 People Can Enter Aravaipa Canyon Wilderness In Arizona Each Day
Arizona is home to many remote, isolated landscapes, but few match the exclusivity of Aravaipa Canyon Wilderness. Just 10 entrance permits are issued each day, making visitors feel like the last people on earth.

All who enter these ancient lands travel back in time to a land far predating civilization as we know it - provided you're in the first 10 people to snag a permit on that particular day, of course.

There are also restrictions on hunting, camping trip length, and number of horses allowed.

Animals such as bighorn sheep, javelina, coatimundis, and ringtail cats also make their homes here.

Brilliant red and gold leaves capture sunlight and reflect it back onto the surrounding rock walls.

You'll walk past many natural pools that almost resemble an extraterrestrial landscape, such as the moon's craters.

Otherwise, several camping areas allow for more leisurely exploration of side canyons, caves, and outcrops.

The entrance fee is just $5, but you'll need to purchase a permit in advance.
