66. The Double Arch

The Double Arch is the park’s tallest arch. It is located across from the Windows and Turret Arch. This half-mile return hike is an easy one.

If you have kids this is another especially family-friendly hike. It should take you about 20 minutes to complete the hike. This is also a great trek because you get the opportunity to see four different arches within a short period of time.

In fact, those who have been, confirm that you can even see one from the parking lot itself. This is especially good for families with younger children because they can actually have a visual goal. (In fact, a visual goal is nice for adults too!) The kids can even climb on the rocks under the arch when you get there.

  1. Great photos. Arches for me is up there with Yosemite and Grand Canyon NP. There are so many cool rock formations. and places to explore. Also the surrounding area has a lot to see and do with Moab, Dead Horse State park, and Canyonlands.

  2. Hello!
    Yes, I agree! I have been to those places more than once. In fact, if you’re a regular reader I’ve written about hiking the entire grand Canyon more than once with my father and a small, select group of Scouts. I doubt I could do it today and am glad I was a teenager when i did it lol Thanks for your comment and for reading too!

  3. I hiking Havasupai the Grand Canyon 25 years ago why am at Moony Falls. It was a Blast! Remembering when, I also hiked Death Valley for 2 weeks about and walked through Dead Horse Canyon and Catalina Island. God had made some amazing places for us to enjoy.

  4. Hi!
    Yes, I did much of my hiking when I was younger and did not totally appreciate what I saw but now I look back and realize each trail we complete is a trail that so many others will never even see.
    Thanks for the comment!

  5. The next time I read a blog, I hope that it doesnt disappoint me as much as this one. I mean, I know it was my choice to read, but I actually thought youd have something interesting to say. All I hear is a bunch of whining about something that you could fix if you werent too busy looking for attention.

  6. Hi!
    I agree. I think the owners have set up this site very nicely. They experiment with other looks from time to time but I agree. I think it has a great look to it.

  7. Good blog! I truly love how it is easy on my eyes and the data are well written. I am wondering how I could be notified when a new post has been made. I have subscribed to your RSS feed which must do the trick! Have a great day!
