Visitor
Center A new 18,000 square foot visitor center
has opened at Arches National Park. The new center features
interactive exhibits, educational kiosks, a 150-seat auditorium, and a
bookstore.
Delicate
Arch is probably the best-known feature in the park. Standing at precarious
attention at the edge of a slick-rock bowl, it is 46 feet high, with a width of
nearly 35 feet. From its lofty vantage point, the views are of mesas, canyons,
the Colorado River canyon, and the La Sal Mountains.

Balanced Rock
Famous sandstone rock carefully balancing on sandstone base.
Windows
Area
The Windows: A gentle climb up a
gravel loop trail leads to three massive arches (North and South Windows and
Turret Arch).
Fiery Furnace
Sunset offers views where the red sandstone looks as though
it is on fire.
Court
House Towers
Huge monoliths, perfect area for spectacular photography.
Park
Avenue
Red sandstone rocks which resemble a city skyline.
Wolfe
Ranch
Great place to visit.
