:: Colorado River's Famous Horseshoe Bend ::
Horseshoe Bend is an awe-inspiring 270° horseshoe-shaped bend carved down, through the layers of sandstone, by the Colorado River.
Visitors can walk straight up to the edge of the rim and gaze down at the crystal blue-green Colorado River below.
The view of Horseshoe Bend from the barrier-free rim of the canyon is extraordinary.
The colors of the rocks change throughout the day, the shadows move in and out of the canyons, and as the river flows, it sparkles and shines in different shades of green and blue.
"The most beautiful in the world is, of course, the world itself." ~ Wallace Stevens
