Horseshoe Canyon (Horseshoe Bend) on the Colorado River in Arizona USA | Horseshoe Bend

Horseshoe Bend (Horseshoe Bend, eng. Horseshoe Bend) is an amazingly beautiful bend (or, scientifically, a meander) of the Colorado River, which has broken through a symmetrical channel in the shape of a huge horseshoe, for which it got its name. It is located about six kilometers southwest of the small town of Page in Arizona, USA, within the Glen Canyon National Recreation Area. Many tourists traveling around the USA come here every day and walk about a kilometer from Route 89across the sand to get to Horseshoe Bend and see this picturesque horseshoe canyon. Especially a lot of people gather on the high bank of the Horseshoe Canyon in the evening before sunset to take memorable bird’s-eye photos of the Colorado River flowing somewhere far below, in the waters of which the rays of the setting sun are reflected.

90 114 Horseshoe Canyon in Arizona USA

The view of the picturesque Horseshoe has been known to us for quite some time, and when we planned our independent trip in the USA, we decided to definitely visit Horseshoe Bend when we are in the city of Page. We wanted to see several interesting sights of Arizona here at once, such as Antelope Canyon, Navajo Bridge and Glen Canyon (together with the dam and Lake Powell).

And finally we got to Page in the evening, having made a long drive across America from Cortes (after a visit to the Mesa Verde National Park) and seeing the famous Monument Valley on the way. We pitched a tent at one of the campsites in the city and immediately set out for the Horseshoe Bend of the Colorado River in the hope of a beautiful sunset.

Unlike the more world-famous Grand Canyon in Arizona, Horseshoe Bend (also called Horseshoe Canyon ) is not so visited by tourists due to its relative remoteness from the main tourist routes passing through the central and southern part of this US state. Only the most curious (as well as those who have a lot of time to travel around the States) stop by Page to admire this unique beauty of nature. However, the more than 270-degree horseshoe-shaped canyon of the Colorado River is truly stunning and definitely worth a look.

The colors of the Horseshoe change throughout the day depending on the lighting. The emerald waters of the Colorado River flow somewhere far below (just like in the Yellowstone National Park in Wyoming USA). The surface of the river glitters and shimmers in the sun with various shades of green and bluish colors. On the way to it, don’t miss a few interesting details on the trail to Horseshoe Bend, which I’ll tell you about now.

Trail to the Horseshoe (Horseshoe Bend) and entertaining geology

To see the Horseshoe, you need to make a small and not very difficult hike (walking) from the car park to the observation deck. No one needs to pay money for parking, visiting Horseshoe Bend is also completely free.

The entire trail (that’s what they call a walking tourist route in the USA) is 1200 meters long one way and can be covered in 20 minutes. You can go at any time of the day, there are no special restrictions. On a hot day, we advise you to bring a hat and plenty of drinking water.

Trail map to the Horseshoe

During the walk you will have to climb a little sandy hill and go down from it to the very edge of the Horseshoe, from where you can enjoy a panoramic view of the deep Glen Canyon formed by the Colorado River, reaching a depth of 305 meters in this place.

Start of the trail

When you go along the road to the Horseshoe, you will at first (as you climb the sandy slope) It may seem that you got involved in this case in vain. However, do not give up right away, but rather think that you have been given the opportunity to follow an exciting route through the cycles of time. And I’m not just talking about this, because the entertaining geology of these places is truly amazing!

Navajo Sandstone. About 200 million years ago, the sand covering the slope was part of the largest sand dune that ever existed on the North American continent. It was literally a sea of ​​sand, which over time, under the influence of water and mineralization, turned into a solid plateau, consisting of Navajo sandstone, which has amazing shapes and a smooth layered structure. It stretches from Arizona to Wyoming and in some places reaches a thickness of more than 700 meters.

When you reach the top of the hill, look around. Right in front of you is the rest of the trail to Horseshoe Bend, and in addition it passes through the Paria Plateau, where there are unique formations such as Waves, and is part of the Vermillion Cliffs massif. Behind was the city of Page. The Colorado River is in the deep Glen Canyon and flows from right to left.

To your right is the great Lake Powell, formed by the construction of the famous Glen Canyon dam. Around it stretches the Glen Canyon National Recreation Area, where Americans like to come for the weekend to swim on the lake in a boat or relax on its shore. And to your left is the vast Navajo Plateau. So you are standing exactly at the crossroads of these unique natural, cultural and man-made attractions.

Navajo Sandstone Geology

The descent from the top of the hill to Horseshoe is more bumpy. The trail surface constantly alternates between fine, whitish gravel and sand and fairly hard, sloping Navajo sandstone cliffs. Be sure to pay attention to the stripes of layers under your feet. These are the diagonal remnants of the hardened layers of former ancient sand dunes that have caked and turned to stone.

• We observed a similar picture when we visited the Canyonlands park in the USA, there are also sandstone rocks.

The whitish coating on the stones gives us clues about how the sandstone hardened. It turns out that the rock that holds the grains together is called calcite (also known as limestone), which can often be found in caves as deposits in the form of stalactites and stalagmites from dripping water. More than 180 million years ago, these dissolved minerals, mixed with water from rain and snow, cemented grains of sand into a single structure as hard as stone.

The whole process of mineralization and petrification of sandstone took about 20 million years. As a result, all the sand dunes in Arizona have turned to stone, while retaining their original shape. A similar picture can be found in the Arches National Park in Utah, we also saw petrified dunes there.

Thus it becomes clear that the top of the hill, through which the path leads to the Horseshoe, once upon a time was the top of a giant dune. Today, as the sand grains erode and weather, you can see the remaining undissolved pieces of hardened calcite that filled the voids. It is less susceptible to weathering and resists the erosion process longer.

Moki Shaman Stones

As you get closer to the end of the trail and the observation deck at the edge of the Horseshoe, the sand gradually ends and only hard gouges remain under your feet. These mounds are places with the highest iron content. It so happened that iron oxide itself is heavier than sand, and therefore it was gradually deposited on the petrified layer and concentrated in the form of a ball, while the sandstone was petrified.

Now, when the sandstone is gradually eroded and weathered, the iron does not go anywhere and protrudes above the surface of the uneroded layers. Over time, these small iron balls break out of the stone captivity of the Navajo sandstone and roll where their eyes look, only to hide out of sight again for centuries. In society, they are considered somehow unique and magical, and therefore are called shamanic moki stones (“marble moki” or Moqui Marble).

How the Horseshoe was formed in Arizona

Going down the hill and reaching the edge of the Horseshoe, you can look inside Glen Canyon, where the amazing Colorado River flows tirelessly at its very bottom. One question immediately comes to mind – how did nature create all this, what is its secret? It turns out that after the formation of the Navajo sandstone, other sedimentary layers gradually settled on top of it. Thus, a strong structure was formed, which for a long time only hardened and strengthened.

And then, for 2 million years, it was turned by water in the form of rains, streams, floods, ice and snow. Her constant companion, the wind, helped her in this difficult task. As a result of the erosion of numerous layers, a deep canyon was formed. To date, the process of erosion of the Navajo sandstone has not been completed, and the sand, which hardened in the distant Jurassic period, continues to be gradually washed away by water from the canyon.

• Interesting fact: among the rocks that make up the Horseshoe rocks, there are various minerals, including precious stones and metals (hematite and platinum).

A classic photo of the Horseshoe Canyon at sunset

What does travelers see from the edge of the Horseshoe? Actually, the bend of the Colorado River, which borders a wide array of sandstone, located right in the center. How did it form, and why did such a strange shape in the form of a horseshoe turn out?

The answer seems pretty simple. When the Colorado River was just beginning to form (and this happened more than 5 million years ago), it gradually cut a channel for itself in the landscape leading to the ocean along the shortest path. However, sometimes insurmountable high barriers in the form of rocks appeared in the way of the water, which could not be quickly washed away. Then the river found a winding detour in the rocks, gradually making a path through them for its waters.

This is exactly what happened to the Horseshoe. The Colorado River carved a deep 270-degree bend through the Navajo sandstone layers in the canon. Presumably, in the distant future, after several million years, the flow of the river with its pressure will gradually undermine the narrowest part of the rock and break through a natural bridge through it. Then the bypass channel around this rock will cease to be needed, and the bed of the Colorado River will gradually straighten. In the described manner, the Rainbow Bridge National Monument, located not far from the Arizona Horseshoe, was formed once upon a time.

Our visit to the Horschu Bend River on the Colorado River

We came to Horschu Bend hoping to see something extraordinary, because this is how the Arizona horseshoe in the majority guides in the United States. The parking before the start of the trail to the Horseshoe turned out to be quite cramped and there is not enough space for everyone. We were lucky, we parked right in the place of the car that had just left, we didn’t have to cut circles while waiting.

At the beginning of the trail to Horseshoe Bend there is a sign that indicates the distance to the Horseshoe – 3/4 miles (1200 meters). Immediately, right on the sand, there are Indians selling souvenirs and all sorts of trinkets.

All the way from the parking lot to the edge of the Horseshoe Canyon we slowly covered about 20 minutes. Walking on dry sand heated during the day is quite difficult even in autumn. It’s hard to imagine what’s going on here in the summer, when there are many more tourists.

Horseshoe Bend in the photo looks amazing, but in reality – even better!

But all the difficulties of the way are forgotten as soon as you get close to Horseshoe Bend. The horseshoe-shaped bend of the Colorado River, which inspires fear at first sight, is definitely not like anything else in the world. You are guaranteed to see something new on the trail, as this place is definitely worth a visit for all nature lovers or those who want to take an extreme photo on the edge of the canyon.

The view from above on the bed of the Colorado River is so impressive that you feel like a bird hovering over a huge abyss. It is breathtaking to be able to walk along the deep canyon of Horseshoe Bend without any railings and insurances. Everyone comes as close to the edge as possible and looks down, as far as courage and courage are. Sometimes the freezing cold pierces to the heels with just one look at some daredevils taking selfies just a few centimeters from the cliff. And someone generally sits as if on a bench, dangling their legs into the canyon.

• Helpful Hint: To photograph the Horseshoe, you need a wide-angle lens to fit the entire wide canyon into the frame.

Everyone who has reached its edge is trying to look inside the canyon. But the fear of heights sometimes overpowers the desire to see what is down there. In this case, we have another simple tip for you. If it seems unsafe for you to stand too close to the cliff, try to get as close as possible to the edge of the Horseshoe and lie down on the ground. This will give you a much greater sense of security and you will be able to look around the canyon without fear of losing your balance and falling into it.

Our recommendation

It is believed that the best time to see the Horseshoe is on a cloudy day when the sun is exactly above it, that is, around noon. Then the reflection of the sun’s rays from the water gives the most saturated colors of the canyon, and the absence of a shadow makes it possible to take outstanding photos of Horseshoe Bend. However, the Horseshoe looks beautiful at any time of the day, and the beautiful sky only complements its unforgettable view – at dawn, in the middle of the day or in the late afternoon. Therefore, we recommend that you watch it when it is more convenient for you, and even several times is better. However, see for yourself and choose which view and at what time you like best.

This is what the Arizona Horseshoe looks like at different times of the day. We walked along the canyon in search of the best views and angles for the Horseshoe Bend photo, watched the sunset and watched tourists and photographers. What can I say, this is really such a fantastic place that evokes such strong feelings that we did not meet a single person there who was disappointed with the panorama of Horseshoe Bend. Impressions were colossal!

What else you need to know about Horseshoe Canyon in the USA

Petroglyphs in Horseshoe Canyon

Below the Horseshoe on the Colorado River you can see the ancient petroglyphs , scratched right on the wall of Glen Canyon. It is believed that these rock paintings were left here over 800 years ago by the Anasazi Indians. Their amazing dwellings can also be seen in Mesa Verde National Park. Here they lived along the canyon, but not at the very level of the river, but much higher. The Anasazi Indians were engaged in agriculture and grew corn and beans, leading a sedentary lifestyle.
