A RIVER’S CURVE. A VAST DESERT VIEW.
Above the Colorado.
A sight to remember.
At the overlook, the landscape opens into a sweeping horseshoe-shaped canyon. The Colorado River traces its curve roughly 1,000 feet below, surrounded by layered sandstone and open sky. Take time to notice the scale, the color and the river that shaped it all.
You can visit independently. A guided tour is optional, and parking fees apply.
