What To Expect
1

2
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.
3
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.
4
Double Arch
You've probably already seen Double Arch - from Indiana Jones! Explore this unusual formation as you relive some iconic movie moments
5
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.
6
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.
7
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.
8
Skyline Arch
Visit Skyline Arch ... A short, out-and-back hike on well-defined trail leads to an arch in a high wall.
9
Delicate Arch
Witness the grandeur of Delicate Arch, nature's timeless sculpture. Capture the essence of awe in a single journey through Utah's iconic landscapes. This package also includes a bonus tour through Delicate Arch Trail!

The app was great and very helpful. I think it was worth the money. I would definitely recommend the app to anyone who was planning on going to Arches. I took off one star only because the app frequently crashed during our tour. Once I restarted it, it would usually work okay and continue where it left off. Even so, it was very helpful and informative.

Thanks for your feedback! I'm so glad you enjoyed the tour. I want to take a closer look at the crashes you mentioned to fix them -- what phone were you using? If you don't mind reaching out over chat, email, or phone with more info, it would be really helpful!

Extremely helpful to have when working, however it wasn't smooth to have installed, and then when there was no access the app would sometimes crash.

Worked great - although we only launched the app in the park. The texts are informative and have also provided background information.
