#The trail underneath the landscape arch movie#
I felt like I was walking through the set of a sci-fi movie as we passed by a series of tall sandstone fins to reach the heart of a fully enclosed and walled off dune. The trail is just as the name implies, all sand. Reaching Sand Dune Arch is really easy, as it’s only a. There was still one more site I wanted to see before sundown, Sand Dune Arch. It was really tough to be leaving Devil’s Garden with so much left to explore, but I’ll leave that uncovered ground for another time in the near future. We made our way down the slickrock and headed back to the parking lot. Julia and I hopped up the slickrock and found ourselves staring back at one of the most beautiful views I’ve taken in all year.ĭevil’s Garden Views On The Slickrock A Look At The Trail
Most hikers turned back here, but I could tell that the best views of Devil’s Garden were ahead. This is hardly a difficult scramble, but you’ll definitely need proper footwear and decent balance to make your way up.

Landscape Arch Landscape Arch From The Slickrockīeyond Landscape Arch, the trial heads uphill for a slight scramble on some slickrock. Landscape Arch is the second longest natural arch in the world. It rose like a thin and elegant finger jutting up from the ground beneath to touch the other side. I was amazed at how thin and frail it looked. After about a mile of hiking I could see Landscape Arch ahead on my left. We hiked along with a pretty nice sized crowd towards Landscape Arch, and it was really cool to see how many families and children were in the park enjoying the outdoors. Before reaching Landscape Arch, there is a nice side trail that heads downhill for a quarter mile before reaching Tunnel Arch and Pine Tree Arch.Īfter seeing Pine Tree Arch and Tunnel Arch, we made our way uphill to get back on the main trail. Landscape Arch is the main attraction in Devil’s garden and is accessible by a short and level hike. Julia and I were a little short for time, so we decided to just do a section of the total trail, allowing us to see 3 of the 8 arches.įins At The Devil’s Garden Trailhead Into The Void

The full hike is 7.2 miles, and includes a some easy trail hiking, a little slick rock scrambling, and a short stint on the “primitive trail”. There are a few hiking options in Devil’s Garden that will allow you to see some or all of the eight arches in the area. There is also a really nice campground at Devil’s Garden that I’d love to stay at some day. The parking lot was jam packed for this popular stop off. With a great lunch under our belts, we made our way back to Arches National Park to do a little hiking in the Devil’s Garden section at the back end of the park.
Julia opted for an omelette, and I got another one of my road-trip favorites, a burger and fries. There is something about the tables, booths, menus, and service that keeps me coming back time after time. I’m a huge fan of diners, regardless of where I’m travelling. We exited the park and made the short drive back to Moab where we stopped at the Moab Diner. A morning full of hiking and site seeing in Arches National Park left Julia and I ready for a good lunch.
