Part 5 of our Bryce Canyon Road Trip (View Part 1, Part 2, Part 3, Part 4, Part 6)
One of our overnights on our way back home from our roadtrip was again, Page, AZ. We took this opportunity to visit Horseshoe Bend for the second time (first visit to Horseshoe Bend), although this was the first time we got to see it while the sun was setting.

Under the guise of a Christmas present for my husband (yes…. gift for me my husband), I gifted him with a road trip to Bryce Canyon National Park in Utah. Of course, our road trips are always packed with many stops and adventures. Our first adventure along the way: Lower Antelope Canyon in Page, Arizona!
The Grand Canyon attracts about an average of 5 million visitors per year (specifically the North Rim). If you’ve been there in person, then you know that even the most amazing photograph doesn’t do it justice… it is, quite simply, GRAND.

However, the Grand Canyon isn’t the only natural wonder in Arizona that offers spectacular views. Check out these beautiful photos that capture the magnificence of Arizona.

With the North Rim of the Grand Canyon being so close to Page, I implored my husband to let us stop at Horseshoe Bend before heading back south. It is just outside of the city of Page, with a small parking spot on the side of the road. Once parked, it’s a 3/4th mile trail to the Horseshoe Bend view point.
The beauty of Horseshoe Bend. We can now cross this off of our Arizona To Do list!
There were quite a number of visitors when we went. Hold on to any young ones as there aren’t any railings and seeing the sheer drop when peeping over the edge is enough to make your heart skip a beat.
