Delicate Arch can also be certainly one of Utah's best family hiking locations. The majesty from the arch can not be seen in the roadway. There's a point of view, just 50 yards off pavement, where one can begin to see the arch far away of approximately one mile. But to actually comprehend its beauty you have to go ahead and take trek which brings you up under it.

Edward Abbey, noted naturalist and author, authored this: "You will find a number of ways of searching at Delicate Arch. Based on your expectations you might even see the eroded remains of the sandstone fin, a huge gemstone cemented in rock, a bow-legged set of scared cowboy chaps, a triumphal arch for any procession of angels, an irrational freak, a happening. If Delicate Arch has any significance it lies, I'll venture, within the energy from the odd and unpredicted to startle the senses and surprise your brain from their ruts of habit, to compel us right into a reawakened understanding of the great-what is filled with question."
