Cliff jumping across Arizona

State overview

Cliff jumping in Arizona

Arizona's cliff diving and cliff jumping directory covers freshwater settings across the state: Oak Creek near Sedona, the Verde Valley, Clear Creek near Winslow, and the reservoirs east of Phoenix. Browse local area pages to compare places such as Grasshopper Point, The Crack, Fossil Creek Falls, Saguaro Lake, and Roosevelt Lake. A listing describes a location; it does not establish that jumping there is permitted or safe. Lake levels, creek flow, and access can change the visit considerably. Reservoir drawdowns can expose submerged obstacles, while rain upstream can send floodwater through a canyon even when the sky overhead is clear. Check the forecast for the watershed, current land-manager notices, parking and permit requirements, and the route back out before setting off. Some destinations in this directory have explicit jumping restrictions. The Havasupai Tribe prohibits diving or jumping from walls and falls. At Lake Powell within Glen Canyon National Recreation Area, jumping or diving from rock cliffs, ledges, or man-made structures 15 feet or higher above the water is prohibited. Read the current rules for the individual location and respect closures and posted signs. Use each spot guide for location and planning context, then verify current conditions locally. Recorded heights and map pins are reference information, not confirmed water depth or a clearance to jump.
