    The first part of the trail is well-groomed and easy to follow. Approximately 10 minutes from the trailhead, you’ll have the option to take your first out and back spur trail to the right. This 0.5 miles trail offers you the chance to view Pinetree Arch and Tunnel Arch, adding around 15 minutes to your hike time. You’ll come across Tunnel Arch firs...

    The next stretch of the trail leads to the Landscape Arch. Stretching a total of 1.6 miles, this is the most straightforward and popular part of the loop. Spanning 306 feet, Landscape Arch is the largest arch in the park. Today the arch is only 11 feet wide after a section of the arch collapsed in 1991. Due to the fragility of the arch, people are ...

    Once you leave Landscape Arch, the trail will turn from loose sand to sandstone. It is at this point that the difficult hiking starts with a steep section and you have to start climbing! Admittedly, this was our favorite part of the hike. It’s both a bit challenging and exciting to scale the rock fins along this trail. It’s not easy to get lost, as...

    Once you reach the top of the first fin section, you’ll walk a short distance before coming across the 0.8 round trip spur trail that will take you out to both Partition and Navajo Arches. Too many hikers skip this spur trail, and in doing so are missing out on two of the most spectacular arches in Arches National Park. At most you’ll add 30 minute...

    Moving on from the Partition and Navajo Arch trail, you’ll again climb a bit and then hike along a flatter section on top of the fin. To the right, you’re going to have some of the most spectacular views in the entire park. It is here that you’ll see a valley with hundreds of sandstone slabs protruding from the ground. It’s stunning, so make sure y...

    Finding the Black Arch overlook is easy, as you come across a sign on the main trail. The detour is super short and well worth it. Once you arrive, you’ll have to search in the distant landscape to catch a glimpse of the arch, but also make sure to take in the other scenery. It’s a fantastic spot to enjoy the beauty of the park.

    Leaving the Black Arch overlook, return to the main trail where you’ll start a descent that involves some rock scrambling down to the Double O Arch. This is a great place to take a rest, drink some water, eat some snacks or lunch and enjoy some shade before continuing. At this point, you have the option of retracing your steps back to the parking l...

    If you want to get a close-up view of the Dark Angel, which is a large sandstone pillar, continue on from the Double O Arch and take the detour when you reach the sign. This will add 0.8 miles to your hike.

    The start of the Primitive trail is flat enough, but eventually, you’ll find yourself navigating some steep slopes, narrow ledges, and having to do some rock scrambling. You’ll also cross a few sandy washes to cross. The trail is marked with rock cairns, but they are hard to see and it’s easy to lose the trail. We recommend that you carry a GPS dev...
