"Bucket list"

Reviewed July 19, 2025 NEW

This national park has many arches :-) ... and trails and more. The center is also the park's headquarters, located at the southernmost point, in an awe-inspiring setting; elevation 4,085 ft (1,245 m). Many great places for yoga! The planned itinerary is to visit Balanced Rock first after the Info Centre, but due to a lack of parking (a few mini buses are parking on tour buses' spots, which is wrong). To save time and avoid crowds and heat, Eric decided to take us to Park Ave instead, and visit Balanced Rock on the way out, which we did, at noon, when the natural light is far less ideal - unforgiving for photography. Our day starts at 7:30. The drive to the visitor center is 10 minutes from our hotel. We made five stops in the park: 1. Info Center, with short movie 2. Park Avenue & Courthouse Towers viewpoint 3. Turret Arch & Double Arch 4. Delicate Arch 5. Balanced Rock

"So many arches in one place"

Reviewed July 18, 2025 NEW

Spent two days exploring Arches and loved the experience. We visited only days before what is considered high season and needed timed entry reservations for the main portion of the day. We had a 7AM July 1 and 8AM July 2. If entering before 7AM no reservation was needed and after July 7 timed entry was not needed. We went straight to Delicate Arch to hike early (temps were in the 100’s both days) and accomplished the 3.4 mile roundtrip hike in under 2 hours with 30 minutes at the arch waiting for pictures… people stand in line to get pictures taken. We also hiked Sand Dune Arch - easy hike for anyone through soft sand, and Broken Arch, a slightly longer hike across an open field area with no sun protection. But the arch is beautiful. Double arch is another easy hike with amazing views and we stopped for a peek at Park Avenue Viewpoint. Parking lots were full and we passed by a few overlooks or short hikes because of that. There are lots of great views and spots to see along the drive alone.

"Arches, God's Work of Art at its finest"

Reviewed July 16, 2025 NEW

I've always wanted to visit Arches for the longest time. Finally, I made it happen with my family. Arches National Park is God's work of art. There are so many different rock formations that tower above you, plus the red coloration that makes it look like real-life painting. We're fortunate that there's no timed entry and no lines. You can drive around different points or hike some of the rock formations. We hiked Delicate Arch, and what a beauty.! We started to hike at 8 am, but the heat of the sun was already brutal. But when you finally get to see it, it's all worth it. I hope to come back to hike some of the other rock formations that we missed during our visit.

"Awestruck!"

Reviewed July 09, 2025 NEW

We were awestruck! The beauty is overwhelming. We hiked, we saw the arches, we learned so much. Hoping to return in the fall when it's a bit cooler so we can hike some of the longer trails.
