Horseshoe Bend is well worth the short walk to get there due to the great view of the Colorado River. Located about 5 minutes from Page, there is about a 3/4 mile walk from the carpark to the Bend. The first section of the trail is uphill then it's all downhill to viewpoint (of course it's the reverse coming back,... more

For a relatively short walk up a sandy hill, you are rewarded with some great views more

There's a nice little uphill/downhill hike to the horshoe, but it is worth it. Page, Arizona is a very beautiful, clean community that resides just above Glen Canyon Dam on the Colorado River. Horseshoe Bend is a breathtaking, free attraction that is certainly a must see if you are in the area. more

A beautiful stretch of the Colorado, Horseshoe bend should be visited if in the area. It can be a bit taxing getting to it and back, as it is uphill in the sand part of the way going and coming back. Bring water. Enjoyed the vista, but would have preferred not trudging through ankle deep sand to see it. But... more

What a beautiful spot. We were advised by Debbie's Hideaway to see Horseshoe Bend, so we drove there (about 5 minutes from Page), parked the car and started walking. It was not nearly as impressive as we were told, and then all of a sudden It was absolutely gorgeous! You would never know it from the road. We spent two... more

Take the time and walk to see the beautiful site. It was relaxing to sit on the rocks and gaze below. We paddled it the previous day so it was nice to see it from another perspective. more

Wonderful. No other word is necessary, just go there. It's not very well indicated but if you pay some attention to find out the little sign on the road side you can't miss it. Then after just a little walk overhill in the red sand (10 min), you get to one of the most stunning viewpoints of Colorado river. During... more

The first time at Horseshoe Bend, we made the mistake of going a little TOO late to catch it at sunset, partly because we got the mileage wrong. It's a brief, somewhat steep, uphill hike in loose sand, followed by a 3/4 mile hike downhill through some rocks and mostly loose sand. That takes 10-15 mins. We repeated the hike... more

If it is under 100 degrees and you are able hike up to see Horseshoe Bend. The hike is a little longer than advertised and has some slope to it, but the view is worth it. I would recommend the morning in the summer heat. more

The hike to Horseshoe Bend is about 3/4 mile from the parking area and is a gradual slope. The view is fantastic. For those uncomfortable with heights and sheer cliffs, it might be a little disconcerting especially close to the edge. more
