The beautiful arch that you see pictured at the top of each page on this web site is the world-famous delicate arch. It is located in Arches National Park just outside of Moab. On the way to the arch and as we were travelling through the park, there was big horn sheep right next to a warning sign that says there may be big horn sheep around.
After a few minutes journey, park visitors see the Balanced Rock. A bit beyond that, is the trailhead to Delicate Arch. For park users that do not wish to hike, there is a nearby lookout to which they can drive. We chose to take all the children on the hike. Even with the young children, the hike only took about one hour. We stayed there for an hour. There were plenty of hikers from all types of nationalities and origins enjoying this natural wonder.
