Canyons are formed by stream down-cutting, usually in arid areas, where the rate of down-cutting is greater than the rate of weathering, and where the stream or river receives water from outside the area.
Rivers and streams
usually by a river or stream, erosion.....
To the best of my recollection of hs geography, canyons are formed over millions of years by being eroded by water, or by the recession of large glaciers such as existed during ice ages.
water erosion from rivers, streams, floods and rain.
Water carves out canyons by eroding the rock.
They can maybe be created by a glacier

Canyons are formed by erosion. Rivers that were previously located there slowly wear down rock and form large canyons in the rock.
Pre Deposition is formed by erosion, cliff, aches, and beaches.
Where powerful rivers once flowed, and carved the landscape. takes a LONG time
Some people think that rivers form canyons, but in fact, the canyons form the rivers
Canyons are found in many deserts around the world.

steep canyons can form when down cutting is slow or fast

wind cannot form canyons but it can shape an carve through them.
There are only a few types of canyons. These are river canyons, mountain canyons, and canyons that were formed by weathering and erosion. +++ Very few types indeed. One in fact! All canyons are formed by weathering & erosion; and all are or were river canyons irrespective of mountains. The requirements for a canyon or gorge to form are a high plateau catchment area feeding a large river for sufficiently long for it to cut back from a steep rim.
