Delicate Arch Viewpoint Trail begins from the Delicate Arch Viewpoint parking area. The trail is 100 yards (91 meters) round trip and takes 10 to 15 minutes to walk. This is a handicap accessible trail that climbs toward Delicate Arch and ends at the rim of a steep canyon that separates the viewpoint from the arch.
(This is not the popular trail to Delicate Arch, which starts at the Wolfe Ranch parking area.)
Arches National Park contains a wealth of hiking trails that provide access to outstanding viewpoints and many of the park's famous features, including Balanced Rock and Delicate Arch. In many cases, trails travel under arches, affording quite a different perspective than what is visible from a car.
