Horseshoe Canyon Guided Walk

<div> <p>Visitors are welcome to meet with a ranger at 9:00 am at the Horseshoe Canyon trailhead for a four-hour guided hike into <a href="https://www.nps.gov/cany/planyourvisit/horseshoecanyon.htm">Horseshoe Canyon</a>. The hike includes stops at four major pictograph panels, including the Great Gallery, where the hike concludes. Visitors return to the trailhead on their own.</p> <div>The hike is considered strenuous, with a 780' descent and ascent, long stretches of walking in loose sand, and limited shade. Please bring four liters/quarts of water per person, snacks/lunch, appropriate shoes for hiking over rough terrain in the desert, and sunscreen/sun-protective clothing.</div> <div> </div> <div>More info:</div> </div> <div data-ogsb="white"> <ul data-editing-info="{&quot;orderedStyleType&quot;:1,&quot;unorderedStyleType&quot;:2}"> <li data-ogsc="black"> <div data-ogsc="black" data-ogsb="rgb(255, 255, 255)">The hike to the Great Gallery is seven miles (11.2 km) roundtrip, requiring five hours or more.</div> </li> <li data-ogsc="black"> <div data-ogsc="">A steep descent of 780 feet (237 m) at the beginning means a steep climb back up at the end of the hike.</div> </li> <li data-ogsc="black">Pets are prohibited on the trail or below the rim of Horseshoe Canyon.</li> <li data-ogsc="black">Group size is limited to 20 people.
