About This Trail

Double Arch is an iconic arch located in the Windows section of Arches National Park. It's easy to get to and is a must see!

Trail Description

Double Arch was filmed at the beginning of Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade. It's a unique arch and easy to get to even if you don't want to leave the comfort of your car.

Trailhead Info

Arches National Park is located roughly 5 miles north of Moab on Highway 128. The Double Arch trailhead is located in the Windows section of the park. To get here, follow the park road 9 miles to the Windows turn off. Turn right (or east) and follow this road for another 2.5 miles. The road ends in a one way loop with the Windows on the south side of the loop and Double Arch on the north side. This is a very popular area and can get crowded.

Trail Info

You can't miss Double Arch. You can see it without having to even leave your car. If you do want to follow the trail from the parking area, it's a short walk to visit the arch. Standing underneath the arch is impressive and gives you an excellent view over to the North and South Window arches.
