Horseshoe bend is a splendid sight to see, its located in Page,Az. It about an 8 hour drive from Los Angeles and I did it over the weekend. There is a very very small uphill hike to horseshoe bend, also I did find it hard to get a perfect photo, and I feel like you need a long “selfie-stick” to really get a good shot of the horseshoe overlook. The photographer that took the photo above had to stand on a really tall rock to get this photo. Anyway, from Las Vegas, we passed Zion National Park, so if youre planning to go to Zion might as well keep going and make a stop in page for a photo opportunity with this majestic beauty.
