Glen Canyon National Recreation Area
Hiking
This page contains information on hiking in Glen Canyon National Recreation Area in Utah and Arizona.
Backcountry hiking in the canyon country requires planning and stamina. However, the rewards can far outweigh the efforts of preparation and the exertion of the experience itself.
Lake Powell's 1,960 miles of shoreline are composed of side canyons, sandy beaches, and moderately-sloped sandstone that form ideal hiking opportunities and vistas. There are no marked trails, but backcountry opportunities abound because Lake Powell occupies only 13% of the Recreation Area.
