What To Expect
1
Arches Visitor Center
Our adventure into the astounding Arches begins just before the park's entrance and visitor center. We're about to see stunning natural monuments, unlikely rock formations, and alien, ancient landscapes.
2
Balanced Rock Trail
Balance Rock is one of the park’s most iconic attractions, and for good reason. It looks like a huge boulder balanced precariously on a thin spindle.... and held together by concrete? Nope - it's all natural, and it's all one single rock.
3
Double Arch
You've probably already seen Double Arch - from Indiana Jones! Explore this unusual formation as you relive some iconic movie moments
4
Wolfe Ranch
The Wolfe Ranch, also known as Turnbow Cabin, is located in Arches National Park near Moab, Utah, United States. John Wesley Wolfe settled in the location in 1898 with his oldest son Fred. A nagging leg injury from the Civil War prompted Wolf to move west from Ohio, looking for a drier climate.
5
Salt Valley Road
This is one of the park’s quieter attractions. Like Cache Valley, Salt Valley was formed by the collapse of many sandstone domes. The broken pieces of rock littering the ground are leftovers from that collapse.
6
Sand Dune Arch
As we drive, exploring more arches, we'll learn more about the Paiute myths behind them, the Spanish and Mormon settlers who tried to survive in this land, and the people who were able to preserve this stunning landscape as a national park.
7
Skyline Arch
Visit Skyline Arch ... A short, out-and-back hike on well-defined trail leads to an arch in a high wall.

Thank you so much for your feedback, Trappsa! I’m delighted that my tour of Arches added to your learning and that you enjoyed it. I also have 100 other self-guided tours for other parks, scenic drives, cities, and historic sites in the US — hopefully, you’ll get the chance to try them next time! Also, to remind you, the tour you bought is yours for a lifetime. So, you can listen to it at home or on your next visit.

Loved 5th Avenue, its massive formations in a row reflecting NYC’s famous avenue was magical. We were fortunate to catch Arches right after a snow storm as the sun was setting and the effect was unbelievable, a total feast for the eyes! Hope we captured a bit in our photos to share!
