4Hike to Cassidy Arch
Torrey is the site for this scenic out-and-back adventure. The total distance is just over three miles. The elevation gain is 1,283 feet. While it’s often said that the lengthy, more demanding hikes are worth the effort, this trip provides a stunning payoff as you stand atop the arch following a short hike with but a minimal amount of scrambling.
You can also explore the awesome overlooks of popular Capitol Reef National Park, and if you’re a shutterbug, get some great shots of the cool rock formations and the striking dark night sky here. The Fruita Campground is available if you choose to do some camping while you’re there as well.
