Delicate Arch - Moab, UT
Delicate Arch is a must-see for anyone visiting Arches National Park near Moab, UT. This arch is on the Utah license plate - and is the unofficial symbol of Utah. The hike to Delicate Arch is just over 3 miles round-trip, and takes a family with young kids just under 1 hour there, and about 40 minutes back. Thus, we noticed many people making the trek half-way and turning around (what a shame!).
Delicate Arch precludes a cliff, and sits in a giant sandstone bowl. The last 100 feet or so until the bowl also has you walk along a 5-6 foot wide path which has a cliff on one side. So the whole journey is not for the faint of heart. But, the hike is definitely worth it!
