Description
Horseshoe Bend is located just a few miles outside of Page, Arizona. It is the single most photographed spot in Arizona. It is named by the shape of the meandering Colorado River as it flows one way and then makes a quick "horseshoe" turn before continuing on through Lees Ferry and the Grand Canyon.
Views of Horseshoe Bend are breathtaking. Standing on the edge of canyon cliffs that drop 1000 feet straight to the river below can make the weak-kneed a bit uneasy. The distant panoramic horizon views down Glen Canyon are mesmerizing. If you are afraid of heights don't get too close to the cliff edges.
