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.

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
