Horseshoe Bend

Good forOutdoor lovers

The Colorado River bends hard here — a dramatic loop around sandstone, viewed from a rim overlook roughly 1,000 feet above the water. The trailhead sits off US Highway 89, about 5 miles south of the Carl Hayden Visitor Center. The round trip to the overlook is 1.5 miles on a hardened path. Bring water. The desert does not negotiate.
