Corona Arch Trailhead — Attraction in Four Corners States

Beautiful hike with lots of interesting features (railroad tracks, cable, ladder) and lots of slickrock. Corona Arch is beautiful and very large, plus you don't get a good view of it until near the end! Lots of mosquitos, especially near the end of the trail and on the Pinto Arch section. Including Pinto Arch, took 2h 15m with my parents (in their early 60s!).

There is also a small ladder on the trail that has to be climbed. But my daughter hiked it in pointe shoes for a photo shoot, so it can't...

One of our favorite hikes and arches near Moab. It was a very well maintained and well laid out hike, and they have a little ladder and a chain to help you in the slightly tougher areas. It's not tough though - none of us felt scared on this hike and we did feel scared doing Devil's Garden in Arches. This was a breeze hike and a fun one, although I could see parts of it being difficult for anyone who is not used to hiking at least a moderate amount. We had it basically all to ourselves except for a couple of other people, and we went towards the end of the day after doing Arches in...
