The Wave, Paria Canyon-Vermilion Cliffs Wilderness, Arizona
Where to book the flight: McCarren International Airport (LAS)
This nicely-colored sandstone that stretches across many regions of the Paria Canyon-Vermilion Cliffs Wilderness in Arizona is undoubtedly one of the most photogenic choices on the list. The rich colors were made by old deposits of iron, and the walls are beautifully casting a glow across the canyons.
The average hike usually takes around six hours, and it’s highly recommended that hikers pack for an entire day, and protect themselves from the heat. On a daily basis, no more than 10 walk-in hikers are allowed there, so if you’re interested in visiting the Wave up close, you have to apply to an online lottery system. For some of the most magnificent views of the desert, you could book your stay at the Page Boy Motel in Page, Arizona.
