Although we got here too late in the day, we were trying to figure out where to go hiking and there are so many places to see here. So we found the North Windows Arches and Delicate Arch. So we decided to just hike around, there are so many hikes around here you can do all weekend.  Just remember to bring water if you end up going here!
Bring along the grandparents or if you're in the army then you can get a free pass for all National Parks!

As soon as you enter start driving through the park you will see some amazing scenery. Everywhere you look the rocks are so red and it's just amazing to look at. It's awesome you can see the Rockies when you are driving around too.

Depending on how far you want to drive, it'll take you about 20 mins to 30 mins to drive to Delicate Arch where the trail head is. So you will see lots of places while you are driving around and you can stop, take photos and anything you want to do.

The park rangers will give you a map of all the arches, but if you forget you can get it here: Arches National Park map . I loved just looking at the window's and even from far away you will be satisfied at looking at these beautiful gems.

The double arch is around here by the North and South Window, but I was waiting on someone to wake up from a nap, so I didn't really have time to explore it. 
If you're looking for awesome short hikes, the south window's you will be able to hike a short distance, they are less than a mile out and in roundtrip.

This photo above is the South Window and you can see tons of random windows out of these beautiful rocks.

Next, we went to the Delicate Arch where you see the license plate in Utah we all drive around and now we finally got to see this!





If you are looking for stuff to do nearby or to eat then here's a couple things you can do that are after getting out of the park that's near Moab, Utah.
If you are looking for average food, but lots of flavors check out The Moab Brewery.

There's an adventure place you can check out when you get into Moab that is 5 miles from the park. You can raft the river, go biking around the trails by the Colorado River, lots of different adventures you can do if you don't feel like hiking around in 100+ degree weather.
I’d love to hear from you:  What’s your favorite National Park?
