I've completed this hike twice, once in 2010 and loved it so much that when I returned to the area in 2019, I hiked it again.

It's a wonderful trail with so many unique attractions along the way including, Landscape Arch, Double O Arch, Private Arch, Navajo Arch and Pinetree Arch. The video also has a little walk out to Mill Creek which is on the edge of Moab and a sunset at the Sand Flats Recreation Area,



I hope you enjoy the video walk report.

What a stunning video!

It brings back so many memories for me. This walk was probably our top highlight of our USA trip that was packed with highlights....

Amazing landscape! Thanks for the tour. I've bagged a few UT peaks but no arches, have clearly missed out. Good to see you didn't lose any limbs among the boulders :)

Tim, thank you for your kind words about the video. Pleased to know I'm not the only one who appreciates all of its 'things to see' along the trail.

Rob, I immediately think of the National Parks when I think of Utah and forget about the peaks that it offers. Was it the La Sal mountains you walked in? They seemed to loom on the horizon anywhere we went in Arches and Canyonlands. We just didn't have the time to explore them as well!
