The Havasupai Reservation is largely dependent on tourism as the primary revenue generator of the Havasupai Tribe and individual tribal members. Each year, over 20,000 visitors hike, ride horses, or fly by helicopter the last 8 miles into the canyon where the Havasupai Indians live. Tourists from around the world come to Havasupai to see this remote Indian village tucked away in the Grand Canyon, to see the last U.S. mail mule train in the country, to see the turquoise blue water and travertine pools of Cateract Creek, and to see the beauty of Navajo, Havasu and Mooney Waterfalls, and to camp, swim and play in this unbelievable setting.

Along with the Bureau of Indian Affairs (BIA) and the Indian Health Service (IHS), the Havasupai Tribe is a primary source of employment for the Havasupai tribal members. Tourism provides revenues for the Havasupai Reservation and the Havasupai Tribe is actively engaged in the tourism business. There are also small businesses owned and operated by tribal members. Some tribal members engaged part-time in micro-business activities such as the production and selling of arts and crafts to visitors.

The Havasupai has five tribal enterprises: Havasupai Tourism, Havasupai Lodge, Havasupai Café, Havasupai Trading Post, and Havasupai Wildlife. With the exception of the two year old Havasupai Wildlife, the four tribal enterprises are primary generators of revenue for the Havasupai Tribe and its members.

The tribe owns and manages the 24-room Havasupai Lodge. The nearest lodging facility is 75 miles away in Peach Springs.

The Havasupai Wildlife and Hunting Enterprise is a new two year old enterprise that needs additional development so it can be a profitable enterprise for the Havasupai Tribe. With the trophy elk potential on the reservation, we are excited about this opportunity.
