With great thanks to the many dedicated National Park Rangers, we began our adventure at The Arches, an outdoor 'museum' of ever-changing rock formations. If, like us, you plan a short stay, a scenic drive coupled with easy hiking is for you. But, there's plenty to do for those who have more time to explore. Couple your visit with nearby Canyonlands; totally different, but equally extraordinary.

Very nice park with beautiful vistas and lovely arches. It was so busy it was difficult to park at the lookout areas. Washrooms are available but not clean, at least the one we used.

Friends have told me for many years that I need to visit the Utah National Parks. Arches usually was mention as the premier park to see. It was gorgeous and has hikes fr every level of fitness. The land features are never-ending. We went in mid September and the temps were moderate (80 to 50 Fahrenheit for high/low). Crowd size was also reasonable.
