  • Fun trip to this part of Canyonlands NP! The dirt road into horseshoe Canyon was no problem - no 4 WD or high clearance vehicle needed. The volunteer rangers did an outstanding job of explaining...

  • We did this trip a couple of years ago, it's about 30 miles on a dirt road and then the trail is 6.5 miles round trip. You have to go down the hill to the canyon and then the road is quite even. It is worth doing but make sure you bring everything you need.
  • 22 miles off the Paved road, remote and isolated out side of the park system is a hidden gem of a slot canyon. most famous for the High Art Gallery, there are a few smaller panels in the canyon as well, but the hike down and into the canyon and its main feature is beautiful in its own right. You can camp on the rim and there is a toilet there, no water, and bring your own firewood. All the photos attached to the other reviews are actually of Horseshoe Bend on the Colorado River in Arizona. Not sure how someone posting could be so confused, unless they haven't been to either of the locations. No Idea how to get google to fix it either.
  • One of the best overview point of Canyon at nearby place of Upper/Lower Antelope Canyon, Utah. The river Colorado is taking 280° of turn here makes this canyon a most beautiful place.
  • great half day hike if you're in the area
  • These are the real photos that tell the story of the HORSESHOES CANYON of Moab Utah, “YOU will see here they are hieroglyphics”..... Someone was wrong to put in the past reviews the other Horseshoes Canyon from Arizona.
