Hiking
The Horseshoe Bend is a very popular attraction in the Page area. It is an amazing view when the sun is in its highest point and the river winds around the mesa. But beauty came with a price.
Until 2018 you could visit it for free, but since the crowds have arrived, you have to pay 10 Dollar at the parking lot. In 2019 there was a new platform installed to offer a safe view point for the increasing number of tourists.

Hiking
Use the restrooms before you start your hike. A good time to hike is around noon, that the sunlight reflects nice on the Colorado.

An important souvenir up to the cliffs: water bottles...in hot weather very important to have enough to drink with you.
