Antelope Canyon X, Sandstone slot canyon in Coconino County, United States
Antelope Canyon X features intricate sandstone formations with curved walls reaching heights of over 100 feet, creating natural light patterns throughout the passages.
The canyon developed through millions of years of water erosion, carving deep channels through the Navajo sandstone layers of the Colorado Plateau.
The Navajo Nation maintains and protects this sacred site, requiring visitors to tour with certified Native American guides who share traditional knowledge.
Tours operate daily between 8 AM and 4 PM, with advance reservations required and prices ranging from 50 to 90 dollars per person.
During summer months, sunlight enters through narrow openings at specific angles, producing intense orange and purple color variations on the canyon walls.
