Horseshoe Bend is a horseshoe-shaped incised meander of the Colorado River, located near the town of Page, Arizona. It is also referred to as the "East Rim of the Grand Canyon." It has become one of the most recognized and frequently visited landmarks in the Glen Canyon National Recreation Area. The hike to the overlook is a 1.5-mile (2.4 km) round trip along a hardened path. The trail is accessible in accordance with the regulations of the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA).
馬蹄灣是科羅拉多河上一條馬蹄形的蜿蜒河道,位於亞利桑那州佩吉鎮 (Page) 附近。它也被稱為「大峽谷東緣」。它已成為格倫峽谷國家休閒區最知名、遊客最多的地標之一。前往觀景台的健行路線往返全長 1.5 英里(2.4公里),沿著一條硬質地的步道行走。這條步道是無障礙步道,符合《美國殘障法案》(ADA)的規定。


Flashback 回顧
2017
During our first visit in 2017, there was no entrance fee, the dirt roads were primitive, and the observation decks were unfenced. This time, in 2023, the park is well maintained, with asphalt parking lots, accessible trails, shade pavilions, and railings at the edge of the viewing platform. Now, there is a $10 entrance fee per car.
我們 2017 年第一次來的時候,門票是免費的,泥土路簡陋,觀景台也沒有圍籬。 這次 2023年,園區維護得很好,有舖柏油的停車場、無障礙步道、遮陽涼亭,觀景台邊緣還有欄桿。現在每輛車的入場費是 10 美元。
