Arches National Park
Arches National Park holds more than 2,000 natural stone arches, more than anywhere else on Earth. The red rock bridges and balanced boulders were carved slowly by water and wind in the high desert.
The park is world famous for Delicate Arch, a graceful stone ring that appears on Utah license plates. Visitors love the easy walks to giant arches and the way the rock turns bright red as the sun goes down.
Landmarks
Delicate Arch, Landscape Arch, and Balanced Rock are must-see shapes that look almost impossible to stand up on their own.
Activities
Short family trails lead right up to many arches, and rangers offer fun guided walks through the twisting Fiery Furnace.
Weather
Summers are very hot, so bring plenty of water, while spring and fall are comfortable and perfect for exploring.
