The trail to the overlook is a 1.5-mile round trip over an Architectural Barriers Act (ABA) compliant trail that is ideal for the whole family and welcomes wheelchairs, strollers, and leashed dogs. The relatively flat, packed dirt trail takes about 20 minutes to hike each way, with a section of the overlook fenced for safety.
Along the way, there are two shade structures, but none at the overlook itself. Keep in mind that there is little shade along the Horseshoe Bend Trail, so be sure to bring plenty of water, wear sturdy footwear, and wear sunscreen. Also, be aware that much of the rim remains exposed, so watch your footing and keep track of children.
NO drones, bikes, skateboards, or motorized vehicles are allowed on the trail.
