If you are averse to crowds and hiking, maybe it’s not for you.
If you love dramatic landscapes and unique topography, absolutely yes. We’ve been asked many times since our visit if it is worth visiting. Once a quiet cliff-side lookout that offered expansive views of this dramatic bend in the Colorado river from over a thousand meters above, today Horseshoe Bend is far from quiet, but it’s just as beautiful as it was before tourism discovered it, and it’s easily one of the best places to visit in Arizona. Horseshoe Bend in Arizona is one of the most photographed landscapes in the United States of America, and in recent years this natural attraction has become incredibly popular amongst tourists, in large part due to the effects of Instagram.
