Maze of the Week #1 - Horseshoe Bend Maze, Arizona

Welcome to our first maze of the year ! We start off with a landscape maze featuring Horseshoe Bend near Page, Arizona. This is a full color maze (using only 6 colors) and uses a draw and cut maze construction. It is not a typical maze to solve because of the use of the natural shape of the stones which create the walls, but I think you will enjoy it.

Some information about Horseshoe Bend

Horseshoe Bend is a large bend in the Colorado River a few miles from the town of Page, Arizona. From a geological standpoint it is an entrenched meander. If you want to learn more about the bend I suggest you check out the Wikipedia page. If you are more interested in visiting the bend, you have options to fly it, hike it and raft it. You also have the opportunity to visit Antelope Canyon which is just 7 miles away ! Seems like a nice vacation.

If you like videos here is one with some great travel information about Horseshoe Bend that I recommend,

Let’s take a look at what exactly I am mazing with an amazing photo of the subject courtesy of Francesco Ungaro, who you can follow on Instagram @ _francesco_ungaro_. And now we can confirm that the bend does indeed look like a horseshoe !

This maze only comes in one format (I tried to make a black and white version but the bend gets lost). Good Luck trying to solve the maze !

Permanent home of the maze is here.
