GiftWorksPlus National Park Series: Arches National Park

Utah’s Arches National Park offers stunning landscapes and over 2,000 natural sandstone arches for visitors to explore. Located in Moab, Utah, close to the Colorado border, Arches National Park contains the highest density of natural arches in the world! Covering over 76,000 acres of land (or about 120 square miles), Arches National Park was declared a National Monument in April of 1929 and became a National Park in November 1971. The natural arch formations are the result of the area’s unique geology. The park is situated on top of a massive salt bed that is thousands of feet thick in some places. In addition to its arches, Arches National Park has unique plant and animal life as well. From desert bighorn sheep, cougars, mule deer, red fox, and kangaroo rats, to prickly pear cactus, evening primrose, and yucca plants, there is no shortage of wildlife to take observe in the park. Visitors can hike and take walking tours of different parts of the park as well. One of the park’s most popular hiking spots is the landscape arch. An impressive arch formation that spans longer than a football field and thinnest part is only 8 feet thick. With its bright blue skies and copper rock landscape, Arches National Park offers plenty of activities for all types of visitors whether backpacking, hiking, biking, camping, climbing, or riding on horseback.
