Love this Delicate Arch..Its some 4 miles of hike with mountain climb but its all worth when we first got the glimpse of this wonderful delicate arch. Must do in Arches National park.

There are three ways of seeing this formation. There are two overlooks (or uplooks). The first is about 100 yards from the end of the road. The second is .75 miles and moderately hard. The final is the hike from Wolfe Ranch. It is longer and more strenuous but puts you under the arch. There is no shade so being...

I was so happy to turn the last corner on this hike and be as happy as I thought I would. What a beautiful scene. This hike is definitely worth the time and energy. It is a great place to take some photos and then kick back and just enjoy it for a bit before heading down. I enjoyed every...

This is a 3 mile hike over slick rock that has steady incline. Sometimes the trail is faintly marked but with all the other hikers it shouldn't be a problem. Hiking in the afternoon is the best time. When you get there take time out to sit back and just enjoy. TAKE PLENTY OF WATER!!!

This is the iconic arch of the Park, but not everyone will feel comfortable making the hike. There is a view point that is an easy walk from the parking lot which gives you a very good view of the arch despite the fact that is it slightly more than a mile away. The accompanying photo is proof of the...

A moderate 2-mile hiking trail takes you to an out-of-this-world view of the Delicate Arch, so photographed and so admired. Well worth the uphill hike, and best before sunset.

long hike to see it up close, but probably worth it. The viewpoints are quite a distance away from the arch.
