"Very Cool Place"

Reviewed November 28, 2025 NEW

Arches National Park is definitely worth a visit. You can see the highlights in a day, but an extra day or two will really allow you to to experience the whole park. It isn't a large park. There are tons of arches to see and the main drive through the park has some beautiful views. My favorite arch in the park was Double Arch. If you don't have the capability to hike out to the most famous Delicate Arch, there is a good viewpoint you can go. Just continue on the road past the parking lot for the arch and you will get there in a few minutes. It requires a short uphill hike too but the view is worth it. I hiked about eight miles and was able to reach Balanced Rock, Double Arch, the Delicate Arch viewpoints, Sand Dune Arch, Broken Arch, Landscape Arch, Tunnel Arch, and Pine Tree Arch. We also drove the entire road and saw more arches from the road too.

"A top-tier national park"

Reviewed November 09, 2025 NEW

Arches is wildly - and deservedly - popular for its soaring stone arches, over 2,000 of them (though only a few dozen notable ones on the main park trails). It’s a very easy park to visit, just 4 miles outside of Moab. The park is relatively compact and the entire park road can be driven in an hour. Most of the well-known arches can be viewed on short hikes from trailheads. I was able to see all the arches accessible from park road trailheads in one day. Arches does unfortunately get very crowded and very hot in the high season. I visited in November and crowds were low and the weather was perfect.

This park is fully open and wonderful! State money is being used to keep the visitors center and restrooms open! Right now, it is free! A variety of hiking is available and the red rock formations are breathtaking!
