Trickles of water running down old Indian paths to springs formed the Providence Canyons, natural wonders of the Southeast. Named for an old church that had to be moved out of their path, they are often called “Little Grand Canyons” because brilliant color effects from forty-three different soils are revealed in their walls. These vari-colored walls and sharp pinnacles make the view awe-inspiring. The canyons cover several hundred acres, and the largest is a half mile long, three hundred feet wide, and one hundred fifty feet deep.
