Lake Powell and Page Drive
🚗8 mapped stops
The red-rock wonderland around Page, Arizona — where the Colorado River carved Horseshoe Bend, slot canyons glow with reflected light, and Glen Canyon Dam holds back a 186-mile-long inland sea. Every stop on this drive looks like it was painted by a geologist with a flair for the dramatic.
