Grand Canyon, AZ United States of America

Formed where the Colorado River cuts through the mountains of the American West, The Grand Canyon National Park is the most stunning and renowned nature reserve in the USA. Spanning over 5000 square kilometers, it encompasses more than four distinct climate zones and reaches up to 2200 meters above sea level, providing an unforgettable landscape. The Grand Canyon is also home to Native American tribes, including the Navajo, Hopi, and Havasuapi, who continue to live in this region. There are Native American Reservations offering various activities and a series of viewpoints overlooking the Grand Canyon and the still waters of the Colorado River. The Colorado River sculpted this natural wonder in less than ten million years, with intense heat and extreme cold wearing down the rock, followed by rainfall that shaped it into a powerful river. With depths of up to 1600 meters and an average width of 16 kilometers, the immense scale of this vast chasm is hard to grasp, with the descent into the canyon akin to a journey back in time. Recognized as one of the world's greatest natural wonders, the Grand Canyon is truly breathtaking and should be on everyone's travel bucket list.
