Double Arch

It's a magnificent place. A stunning natural rock formation. It takes 5-10 minutes to reach. You'll walk for 5 minutes over slightly uneven terrain. It's a breathtaking view. I recommend visiting in March-April or September-October. It's important to come in the right season to avoid the heat. Unbelievable 🦎👍

Nature's beauty. One of the best Arch in the national park. It ks a short walk frlm the parking or even from the Windows trail. You can climb on rocks to get up close to the arch. It is a beautiful formation. There are lot of photo spot out here.

Super short & easy hike for people of all ages! Double Arch is probably my favorite in the whole park due to it's vastness, great photo backdrop and great accessibility. We visited on a Friday in June (7am timed entry) and made this our first stop so we could get family photos without a crowd. We got to this arch around 8am and there was only 1 other person. Definitely a must do, especially if you have children! As always, start early and don't forget your water! :)

Pro tip: Often the lower parking lot here has more spots and easier access to the double arch. This is probably the most picturesque and beautiful place in the park due to its location and ease of access. You can actually climb inside the hollow structure and marvel at its enormity and scale. Pay attention to the bottomless pit (in the pictures) board to learn how this place came to be. Very interesting 🤔 There is another viewpoint from the top of the left arch but it's risky to climb and despite looking like an easy task, quite slippery and difficult to get down from.

This is one of the most famous arch in the whole Arches National Park, it is the connection of two arches in orthogonal position. If you stand underneath it, you will able to see the sky was divided into three pieces, amazing

We were here in early April after 6pm and the crowd had thinned out to make it easy to find parking and escape most of the crowds to get a great photo. The weather wasn't too cold and the clouds were incredible with the arches! Worth the hike over to climb under the arch!

To get there, drive 9.2 miles up the Arches Entrance Road, and then take the first right after Balanced Rock into the Windows section of the park. You will follow this road 2.7 miles to its end at a circle for the Windows Trail. The Double Arch Trailhead is located at the north end of the circle at the far north of the parking lot.While here, visitors might as well enjoy the surrounding sites; the trail to Double Arch is so short, and there are so many attractions packed into such a small area as the Windows. The Parade of Elephants, Turret Arch, the Windows, Cove Arch, Ribbon Arch, Elephant Butte, and the Cove of Caves are all within half a mile of each other. Double Arch is a close-set pair of natural arches in Arches National Park in Utah. Double Arch was formed differently from most of the arches in the park. It is what is known as a pothole arch, formed by water erosion from above rather than more typical erosion from the side. The larger opening has a span of 150 feet (45 m) and a height of 105 feet (32 m). These dimensions give the arch the tallest opening and second-longest span in the park. From the Double Arch parking area it is a 0.5-mile (0.80 km) round trip to the arches that may be wheelchair accessible, with assistance. No guardrails or fences prevent visitors from exploring directly beneath and through the arches.

Around 10 minute walk from the parking lot. Easy access. The arches were majestic. It looks better than the arches on the other side of the windows.
