This Hidden Spot In Arizona Is Unbelievably Beautiful And You’ll Want To Find It

Often referred to as Arizona’s second Grand Canyon, Sycamore Canyon is one gorgeous place hiding all kinds of alluring sights. You can find the beautiful, babbling Sycamore Creek, ancient buildings that still stand all these centuries later, plenty of wildlife, and, of course, nature’s beautiful self. There is one hidden little spot near the north end of the canyon that is known for its unique rock formations, rock climbing area, and a seasonal waterfall.

This is Paradise Forks, also known as Sycamore Falls!
