Explore this area with a self guided adventure through slickrock sand formations. Great views of canyon walls and the Glen Canyon Dam. Lakeshore access is possible depending on the current lake elevations.The lake is very deep at this location and good swimming skills are required.Trailhead: Just east of Glen Canyon Dam, take a gravel road heading north off of Highway 89. Turn left pass the Hanging Gardens parking area, and continue down the rough dirt road to reach the first of two parking areas. Rarely overcrowded and awesome hiking. Take the short hike down to the Colorado River for a swim. Once you hike down to the water there are little areas you can set up chairs or umbrellas.
