Arches is located in northeastern Utah, near the city of Moab. The park is famous for over 2,000 natural stone arches and offers much to the outdoor traveler. There is a 40-mile paved loop tour of the park with numerous trailheads and outlooks.
An arch is a curved structure that spans a space and may or may not support weight above it. Arch may be synonymous with vault, but a vault may be distinguished as a continuous arch forming a roof.
