  1. What to Do on Your Lake Powell Vacation!

  2. Lake Powell A History Located on the border between Utah and Arizona, Lake Powell is the second largest man-made reservoir in the United States. Created as a result of the flooding of Glen Canyon in 1963, it now attracts over 2 million visitors a year. Known for its sparkling waters and geological formations, learn more about this majestic wonder in the next few pages.

  3. Tower Butte During your Lake Powell visit, be sure to visit Tower Butte. Formed over millions of years, Tower Butte sits 5,000 feet above sea level on the south shore of Lake Powell and Monument Valley Navajo Tribal Park. Only accessible by helicopter, the plateau offers 360 degree views of the surrounding area.

  4. See the Sights: Rainbow Bridge Named “Nonnezoshe” or “rainbow turned to stone” by the Navajo people, the Rainbow Bridge is a sacred formation carved by wind, sand and streams. The tallest natural bridge in the world, it stands 290 feet high and 275 feet wide. Tucked away in Lake Powell’s surrounding canyons, it’s accessibly by hiking or a boat ride across the lake.

  5. Monument Valley A short distance away from Lake Powell is Monument Valley. An iconic staple of western films, it defined the image of the American West for a generation. Famous for its stratified buttes, the valley contains multiple natural formations. As part of the Monument Valley Navajo Tribal Park, visitors can have a guided tour of the area or fly over it by going on an airplane tour.
