Another awesome hike! The arch at the end is HUGE and we sat there for about 20-30 minutes. There were A LOT of people on this hike, but we did start later since we did the Grandstaff Trail before this one. This hike is pretty easy, however, it DID have a section with chains (I did well with them) and a short ladder that wasn’t difficult at all (mainly because it didn’t have a steep dropoff!) This hike was definitely worth it.

This hike is outside Arches NP and so is free, and to be honest is better than any of the Arches in the Park except Delicate Arch. It’s an interesting hike, all the hard work is in the first 1/2 mile, then it levels out, you have a ladder and a short section where you hang onto a chain to negotiate but even for me, 67 years old, it was easy. The arch is spectacular and the photos don’t do it justice, we started about 9 am before it got too warm and virtually had the arch to ourselves bar an Indian couple from London who were very pleasant and took some photos for us. We spent 30 mins there and were up and back by lunch. If you like this hike also go to Fisher Towers but not in the same day.

Great hike up the hill, over the train tracks, through the sheep gates, up the chain, climb the ladder, and over the slick rock. A large spectacular walk under arch. Nice in late afternoon. The bonus was the Bow Tie Arch nearby

The Corona Arch Trail is a wonderful hike near Moab.  It is on BLM Land and is free to access.  It's just over two miles of gorgeous hike to the arch with some small sections up an incline with chains and a ladder.  The start of the trail from the parking lot has a small but steep climb to the top of a mesa where the Potash Railroad Spur goes through a beautiful mountain cutout.  The rest of the trail is a gradual ascent.  Along with Corona Arch we also get to visit Bow Tie Arch.  There is an additional out-and-back trail (about a mile long) to Pinto Arch which is not as spectacular.  On the way back to the parking lot, one can enjoy expansive views of the Colorado River and the lush green of the river banks. A hike to see Corona Arch is well worth the effort.

Corona Arch is a moderately difficult trail. We started out early on a busy weekend. It starts off with rocky steps and quickly levels out. There’s a worn path that traverses a rocky hill which can be a bit unnerving and an area with a near vertical climb with shallow footholds and a chain handrail. If you manage to get passed this there’s the last obstacle of a rickety ladder. The arches are beautiful. If anyone has a fear of heights or exposure, I think it would be difficult. It’s definitely challenging.
