The Copper Canyon is a group of canyons consisting of six separate canyons in the Sierra Tarahumara (southwestern part of the state of Chihuahua) in Mexico. The overall canyon system is larger and portions of it are deeper than the Grand Canyon. The Copper Canyon system is transversed by the Chihuahua al Pacífico railroad, known by the nickname "Chepe." It is both an important transportation system for locals and a draw for tourists.
