2 Days in Page Arizona
Page Arizona is a hub for some pretty incredible landscapes. Only a short drive from here, you can tour the swirling wave-like formations of Antelope Canyon, see the twisting river at Horseshoe Bend viewpoint, or head out boating or jet-skiing on the gorgeous turquoise water of Lake Powell. In this blog post I’ve listed some of the best things to see and do while you’re in Page, especially if you only have a weekend to explore.
Hike Devil's Garden Loop Trail
Devil’s Garden Loop Trail is the most challenging hike in Arches, but the reward is high! You’ll get to view 7 unique arches along this trail. This is my 2nd favorite hike in the park next to Delicate Arch. The views all along this trail are spectacular, and the adventures you’ll encounter along the way are A+.
Hike to Delicate Arch, the Largest Freestanding Arch in Arches National Park
Delicate Arch is the largest freestanding Arch in the park and also made “famous” by Utah license plates. This is a popular hike because the Arch itself is so stunning, standing at 52 feet high and miniaturizing anyone who stands near it. This is a must-see if you’re visiting Arches, but it’s a moderately challenging 3 mile hike. If there is one hike you do in Arches, this should be the one!
Hike to Corona Arch and Bowtie Arch
The hike to Bowtie and Corona Arch is beautiful less trafficked hike outside of Arches National Park near the city of Moab. This trail will take you through sand and across sliderock to two distinct arches, small coves cut from sandstone, and blooming cacti.
Explore the Wave-like Sandstone Formations of Upper Antelope Canyon
Antelope canyon is a majestic slot canyon where wave-like formations flow in vibrant colors of oranges and purples, and sand particles suspend in the light beams that penetrate the narrow passageway. This canyon is located near Page Arizona on land owned by Najavo Nation. It has been formed over time by centuries of wind and water flowing through the crevice, and is only accessible by booking a tour.
Hike the Labyrinth of the Fiery Furnace Trail
The Fiery Furnace in Arches National Park is a burnt orange labyrinth of sandstone canyons that is (very) easy to get lost in. This trail will take you to slot canyons, small coves cut from sandstone, and surprise arches… but you’ll need to explore off trail every now and again to find these hidden gems. There is technically a trail, but the arrows are small brown signs that blend into the canyon, so you have to keep your eyes peeled if you want to eventually escape the maze. In this post, I’ll give you the info you need to hike the Fiery Furnace Trail.
