Lake Powell is a reservoir on the Colorado River, formed by the Glen Canyon Dam. The reservoir is named after explorer John Wesley Powell. Lake Powell is a famous tourist destination in the western United States, famous for the sharp contrast between the red rock canyon and the blue lake. As the second largest artificial lake in the United States, its winding lakeshore is 3,152 kilometers long, hiding hundreds of sandstone canyons and natural arches, making it a natural paradise for outdoor sports and geological exploration. Water activities are the core of the tour: rent a yacht or kayak to cross the narrow canyon waterway, or participate in a sunset cruise, motorboat, or paddleboard service. On land, it is recommended to hike the sand dunes of Lone Rock Beach or drive to Rainbow Bridge National Monument. Photography enthusiasts can go to Alstrom Point in the early morning to capture the magical light and shadow of the sandstone reflected on the lake. During the peak season, it is recommended to book boats and camping sites several months in advance. There are fewer tourists in winter, but please note that some piers are closed.
