The Trail
This easy loop trail is only 0.5 mile long with a minimal 80 foot elevation change. The short trail takes hikers to the low lying but long Mesa Arch.

When looking through the arch, hikers will see the La Sal Mountains. This is a great place to watch the sunrise.
Directions
This trail is located in the north most end of San Juan County in the Island in the Sky District of Canyonlands National Park near Moab, Utah. To get there, turn west off of US-191 onto UT-313. This will be marked with signs for Canyonlands. You will have to pay a fee to enter the park either at the station along the road or at the Visitor's Center. From the Visitor's Center, continue about 6 miles down the road. The turn off for Mesa Arch will be on the left a little before the road splits.
