22Hike to Navajo Arch
While in Moab, don’t miss your chance to take this out-and-back hike either. It is actually less than three miles and has an elevation gain of just 377 feet. Give yourself between two to four hours for this hike. You will find some shade, and other hiking trailheads, and see multiple arches and rugged red sandstone rock formations on your way to Navajo Arch.
