The benchmark of excellent national parks - Arches National Park
The symbol of Utah, the location of the perfect arch!
🌟Highlights:
Various natural arch wonders, you can enjoy them from a distance, and it's even more exciting to walk closer
👍Most recommended:
The most recommended is the Double Hole Arch hiking route. The regular route to the Double Hole Arch is about 3-4 miles; if you go deeper, it's a more exciting advanced route where you can see the Black Angel, about 7-8 miles. There are road signs and you can ask passers-by if you don't know the route. I saw some hikers using an app called Hiking, the route they have walked is one color, it's easy to distinguish between the route they have walked and the one they haven't; the advanced version has mountain roads, it's very hard if you don't have enough physical strength!
✅Must experience:
If you don't want to get too tired, just go to the perfect arch, about 12 minutes of hiking, you can see it from a distance, bring a telephoto lens!
⏳Play time:
I went in for the second time, if you go early, you can see the fog in the canyon and take special pictures, or go at four or five in the afternoon when the sun is about to set, it's not recommended to go deep, just look as far as you can see!

Whatever the motivation, its majesty and research value are definitely recognized. The park is not only arches, but also a number of large and small minarets, pedestals and balance stones and other strange geological features; all of the stones have a very strong color contrast.

It is the largest arch-shaped natural sandstone concentration in the world, where there are more than 2,000 sandstone arches, the smallest of less than 1 meter wide, and the largest span of 100 meters. The magical power of nature has created a special landform here, in addition to arches, the park also formed a number of spire rocks, balance stones and other strange geological structures, this special geological landform formed about 300 million years ago. The scenic spot is very large, the most representative scenic spots inside need to be reached on foot, and all famous scenic spots have signs clearly marked on the roadside, and are equipped with corresponding instructions, such as how much distance to walk from here, how much time, and landform characteristics, etc. and photos, Let the tourists decide for themselves whether they have enough time to hike.
As beautiful as in National Geographic magazine, you can drive in, very suitable for family travel
Balance Stone is on the roadside. It takes two hours to walk back and forth from the parking lot to the delicate arch, and the whole journey is sunny. We must bring more water. We suggest that each person take 1L of water to walk on the cliff. The slope is very steep. My sun cap is blown to the edge of the cliff. I dare not pick it up. I hang it there. The foreigners who pass by see it are alarmed that someone has fallen down. Behind the delicate arch is the snow mountain, which is very beautiful and absolute in the blue sky and white clouds. You can continue to walk under the arch, feel its shock, lie under the arch, see the scenery, let it go, enjoy it. Then you go to the scenic arch, which is the longest arch in the whole park, and the smallest part seems to be breaking off. No wonder many people say to take a quick look and pass. Two years of earthquakes and nothing really broke. Arch Park can use the National Park Year Card. It's highly recommended. You will marvel at the ingenuity of nature.
