First time visiting at Arches National Park and its indescribable the beauty that the state of Utah holds. The hike up to Delicate arch is a 3 mile out and back crawl uphill, rocky terrain and incredible views. We visited in October so the weather was perfect. Its not recommend in the summer months due to the extreme heat. Balanced rock was easy to be able to walk right up and around the area with some natural steps and pathways, no hike required. We spent a whole day in the park and didn't get to see even half of what Arches has to offer. So allow yourself plenty of time to explore. The nearby town of Moab is a unique and fantastic place to experience local shops and dining. And definitely check out Potash road just outside of Moab, take a drive down "Wall Street" where the sky high slab wall that runs along the Colorado river is a magical experience and offers lots of places to stop and explore with some trails and petroglyphs. So much to see and I promise you'll be in awe.
