Arches National Park Visitor Center

The Visitor Center has necessities like water, snacks, and restrooms. This is a good place to fill up your water and purchase a few snacks. There is no other place in the park that sells food and the only other place that has drinking water is all the way at the end of the road at Devils Garden.

moab fault overlook

At the Moab Fault viewpoint, you can see the result of enormous pressure that separated the area of the viewpoint from the cliff wall on the other side of the canyon.

Petrified Dunes

This is a vast landscape of these sorts of lumpy rock formations. It may not look like it at first, but they are actually sand dunes, like on the Sahara. More specifically though, these are petrified sand dunes, meaning that the sand actually solidified into rock around 200 million years ago.

Delicate Arch

This is probably the most famous Arch in Arches National Park. In fact, it’s on the Utah state license plate! While Delicate Arch is certainly not one of the tallest in the park, this iconic formation has a special charm that has attracted people from all over the world.

Lower Delicate Arch Viewpoint

If you don’t have time or don’t have a reservation to make the three-mile hike to Delicate Arch, you can still see the arch from two viewpoints. The trail to the lower viewpoint is just a short 100-foot walk from the parking lot. The second trail is to the upper viewpoint, about a half-mile round trip.

Salt Valley Overlook

The Salt Valley was once called the paradox formation because early geologists couldn’t determine how it was created. It’s a good thing you’ve got Shaka Guide to make everything clear.

5 minutes • Admission Ticket Free

Fiery Furnace

This place got its name because the rocks here glow as if they're on fire when the sun is at the right angle. There is a permit-only hike through the Fiery Furnace but permits are limited and must be reserved online. We don’t recommend the hike on our tour due to its difficulty, but if you really want to hike it, you can make a reservation here.

1 hour • Admission Ticket Free

Sand Dune Arch

Here you can walk a short distance to visit Sand Dune Arch, which includes a sort of sand pit that children of all ages like to play in. There’s a two-mile hike to Broken Arch and a rough road that will take you further to Tower Arch.

1 hour • Admission Ticket Free

Skyline Arch

This large arch sits just above the horizon framing the sky as a wonderful window arch. No hiking is required, but if you want, just 10 minutes on foot will get you up close to the arch.

20 minutes • Admission Ticket Free

Devils Garden

At Devils Garden, miles of trail systems connect seven arches and numerous fins, spires, and other formations. We recommend you set aside some time to park here, walk around, and check out the arches. The hike is short - about two miles - and it's well worth it. You'll also find picnic tables and a restroom if you want to relax for a while. The most famous formation at the Devil's Garden Trail is definitely the Landscape Arch, the longest arch in North America.

City folks say you get the same feeling standing among the rock formations in Park Avenue that you do standing next to the towering skyscrapers in New York City.

La Sal Mountains Viewpoint

La Sal means the salt in Spanish. The mountains got their name in 1776 when Spanish explorers thought the snowy peaks looked like giant piles of salt. The highest peak, Mount Peale, is over 12,000 feet and around 3,600 meters high

Garden of Eden

The Garden of Eden is a great place to wander around. This is an open terrain dotted with fins, windows, and miniature arches, or even arches still being formed. There's no designated trail so be sure you watch your step for any biocrust. You can find the owl rock just a short distance from the parking lot.

15 minutes • Admission Ticket Free

Pothole Arch

The Pothole Arch is unlike the rest of the arches you’ll see on the tour because, while those arches are vertical, this arch is horizontal.

Panorama Point

From this high vantage point, you can see for miles and miles in several directions. To the north is Devil's Garden and the Fiery Furnace. To the south, you can see Elephant Butte, the highest point in the park at 5,600 feet.
