Named for its naturally formed ochre-hued arches, the strangely beautiful highlights of arid Arches National Park are best seen on foot or via a vehicle on a leisurely sight-seeing drive.
A nice, easy hike for the entire family; this trail is easy to hike even for small children. There are other lakes in the area which don't have developed trails on them, these lakes are easy to locate if you bring your topographical map along.
