Utah has no shortage of challenging hikes, but some don’t get nearly enough recognition. Devils Garden Loop Trail, located in Arches National Park, is a 7.8-mile adventure that features seven natural arches, and the awe-inspiring views are worth every drop of sweat.
Devils Garden Loop Trail is a top-rated difficult hike in Utah, and for good reason. At 7.8 miles long, it ascends nearly 1,000 feet — but the seven natural arches you’ll see along the way more than make up for the challenge.
Well-maintained, the path is plenty wide enough to accommodate the large volume of hikers that traverse it. Even still, you’ll want to arrive early to enjoy some level of solitude before the crowd really starts to thicken.
