9Hike to Double Arch
Travel to the Castle Valley area and prepare for this brief hike. It is a good half-mile out and back with an elevation gain of just 135 feet. This hike in the Arches National Park vicinity will allow you not only to see the Double Arch in person but it gives you the choice of visiting other natural arches as well. The famous Double Arch is actually a pair of arches that share the same rugged stone for their outer leg foundation. This natural attraction is the result of downward water erosion. Unlike some of the other previously mentioned hiking trailheads, you should have no trouble finding parking here.
