Close by is the Tonto Trail. If you want to walk parallel to the Colorado, but several hundred vertical meters above it, you should take a few steps here.

Benches in the shadow, toilets and potable water are just some reasons to take a break here.

Indian Garden is a nice spot for a rest. Fill up your water bottles and cool down in the shade before continuing your hike :-)
