Valles Marineris
The Ophir Chasm is a part of the biggest known canyon. It snakes some 4,000 km across the surface of Mars and is up to 10 km deep.

Grand Canyon
The most famous and by far the most accessible canyon of all. It’s much shallower than the other giants, but staggering none the less. And you can drive up to it.

Tsangpo Canyon
The largest on our planet. The Tsangpo (Brahmaputra) cuts almost 5.4 km deep into Tibet, creating a lush near-paradise that’s unlike anything else in Tibet.

Kali Gandaki Canyon
The waters of the Kali Gandaki cut through Dhaulagiri and Annapurna (the world’s 5th and 10th highest mountains). The view from Poon hill (Nepal) is breathtaking.
