Overview

The Arizona desert has limited opportunities to get your feet wet. Figure Four Canyon is one of those spots that's worth the short and easy drive to a sandy beach, right along the shore of the Virgin River. There is a high banked bend in the river that is a relaxing place to put down stakes or to take a break after exploring the nearby Virgin River Ruins. The trail end has a bend in the river, a pooling area, making it an ideal spot for catching fish. The trail is easy enough for most stock 4x4's and the sandy beach is way less crowded than the nearby Little Jamaica trail.
