Overview

This is a easy out and back trail from Park Avenue to the Courthouse Towers Viewpoint in Arches National Park.

Follow steps down into the wash and follow it to down to the Courthouse Towers parking area. Alternatively, start at the Courthouse Towers Viewpoint parking area. Please stay in the wash and on the designated trail in order to preserve the fragile living soil crust!

Enter Arches NP and follow the road approximately 3 miles until reaching the Park Ave parking area on the left. Walk on the paved path to the end of the viewpoint and head down the stairs towards the wash.

The Courthouse Towers Viewpoint parking area is approximately 4.3 miles from the entrance gate and is located on the right.

Taking Children

This is an excellent hike for children. The climb has literal stairs and the elevation gain/drop is mild.

    This is an easier hike with not much elevation.. gorgeous rock formations abound...Yet, Even during early summer months the temp can climb well over 100 degrees..Ensure you hike at the right time of day..Depending on the time there isn’t much shade and the suns reflection off the red rocks is draining..H2O up always...
