Landscape Arch is one of the more popular attractions in Arches National Park. Located in the Devils Garden area in the northern part of the park, the trailhead was only a short drive from our site in the Devils Garden Campground. Landscape Arch is 1.5 miles from the trailhead.
It’s the longest arch in the park and according to The Natural Arch and Bridge Society, the longest natural arch in the world, laser measured in 2004 at 290.1 ± 0.8 feet (88.4 m). Since 1991, three sandstone slabs have fallen from the thinnest section of the arch, resulting in closure of the trail that once passed below it. Several other arches are accessible in the Devils Garden area.

This is amazing..How I wish I could go in this place to see how beautiful this arc..
LOL and we rave about the Giant’s Causeway it is pocket sized compared to those rocks and arches.
I was in the exact spot as this post just last summer. I live in Coastal NC and was in awe at the desert landscape!
Hi Mike .. loved the video – that arch is incredible isn’t it .. glorious countryside too .. cheers Hilary
Thanks. It was well worth the hike out there and back.
I saw Arches National Park for the first time in 2001. And I’ve been back twice since then.
I love this place. It’s like the Bugs-Bunny Roadrunner cartoons, but in real life.

We like it a lot, too, but wouldn’t want to go there in the heat of the summer.
