One of the best Arch of the park. Please do not go beneath it for security reason. A bit of rock fell off few years ago

Landscape arch is longer then a football field and to the naked eye, defies physics. In actuality, the thinnest part of the arch is 8 feet thick and will probably be around for a long long time. It is a short and wondrous hike from the trail head and offers a spectacular introduction to Arches NP. It is just one... More

We only had one full day in Arches NP and we had already done the Fiery Furness walk with the Rangers (3hrs) and so were rather short on time (and energy) but I really wanted to see this arch and so parked at the large car park at Devil's Garden Trailhead and started on the 1.6 mile hike. Actually with... More

We hiked Devils Garden trail so that we can see Landscape Arch while it still exists. We were aware that this particular arch could collapse anytime so we made sure that we get to enjoy it while it was there. Even though we had seen pictures of it before, we were still amazed at how this spindly arch had been... More

The walk out to Landscape Arch can be very hot and dry. The track is mainly firm but sandy. The arch is well worth seeing - but having made the trak, do see one or two other arches (such as Pine Arch or Tunnel Arch) that are a short distance from the same trail.

Liked all the Arches on the way and also several that were beyond it. Actually saw Wall Arch prior to its collapse. Do not like hikes so coming down the Fin was not fun for me.

This was by far one of my favorite arches in the park. It did not look very strong, nor could we get very close to it, but definitely worth seeing.

If you ask a ranger which arch to see in the park, they will tell you Landscape Arch, because it's the oldest and well be the first to go. They had a huge chunk fall of it in the 90's and now you cannot go under the arch, or even that close. It is huge. The size of a football... More

This gigantic and lengthy arch is incredible looking. You won’t be able to walk under it or get too close to it since it is extremely delicate. Scientists are literally planning on it collapsing at any time. Go see it before it does. The hike is mild but lengthier then most of the other arches in the park. Note: Parking... More

The walk to Landscape arch is only about 1.8 miles (r/t) of fairly easy strolling, but the real fun is on the continuation to both the Primitive Loop and/or to Double O arch. Far fewer people continue past Landscape - isn't it funny how so many people go to national parks but are in such hurries to get back to... More
