Rainbow Bridge

Rainbow Bridge is the thing to see at Rainbow Bridge National Monument!

  • A parabolic curved natural sandstone arch nestled in the winding canyons around the midway of Glen Canyon. Access is extremely limited. There are no roads that go to Rainbow Bridge. Via Lake Powell, it is a three-hour boat ride to the docks that reach the trailhead. There are microflush toilets on the dock, no other amenities. The trail is rough and rocky with no railings.

  • From Your Boat To The Bridge
  • There is one designated trail within the boundaries of Rainbow Bridge National Monument. It runs the length of the monument, from the boat dock on one side, to the border with the Navajo Nation on the other. We ask that you stay on this trail when you visit Rainbow Bridge for your safety and out of respect for the local Native American tribes that hold this place special to them.

  • Contemplate Your Place in the Landscape At The Big Map
  • The Glen Canyon and Surrounding Area Relief Map sits in a place of honor at the Powell Museum & Archives next to Glen Canyon Conservancy's Flagship office. Use it to help plan your Glen Canyon adventure, or pretend you are in space looking down at the landscape. Whoa.
