Kolob Arch is a natural wonder that is not to be missed on a visit to Zion National Park. The arch is located in a remote area of the park, and can only be accessed by a strenuous hike. However, the effort is well worth it as Kolob Arch is the largest arch that is accessible to the public in the world, with a span of 310 feet.

The arch is located in the Kolob Canyons section of the park, which is located on the west side of the park and is often less crowded than the main canyon. The hike to Kolob Arch starts at the Lee Pass Trailhead and is approximately 8 miles round trip. The trail is well-marked and takes hikers through some of the most beautiful scenery in the park. Along the way, hikers will see stunning red rock formations, dense forests, and a variety of wildlife. The trail is considered strenuous, so hikers should be in good physical condition and bring plenty of water and snacks.

The arch itself is a truly awe-inspiring sight. The massive sandstone arch stands tall and proud, with a span that is over 300 feet wide. The arch is so large that it’s hard to take in all at once, and visitors are often struck by the sense of scale and majesty of this natural wonder. It’s a great place for a picnic, and for taking some great photos of the arch and the surrounding area.

In addition to Kolob Arch, there are many other natural wonders to explore in Kolob Canyons. Visitors can hike to Timber Creek Overlook for a panoramic view of the canyons, or explore the Kolob Terrace Road for a scenic drive through the park. There are also several campgrounds and picnic areas in the area, making it a great destination for a weekend camping trip.

In conclusion, Kolob Arch is a must-see destination for anyone visiting Zion National Park. The hike to the arch is challenging, but the stunning scenery and the awe-inspiring arch make it well worth the effort. So, pack your bags, lace up your hiking boots, and head out to Kolob Canyons to discover one of the world’s most impressive natural wonders.
