Although the hike to Corona and Bowtie arches is generally fairly accessible across gently sloping slabs of slickrock and sandy pathways, this portion of trail is challenging with exposures and steep rock faces. To aid hikers, the BLM installed metal chains next to moki steps (small foot-holes chopped into the stone), as well as a short ladder to gain the top of a rock bench. Please be patient with other hikers as they navigate this short, but more technical portion of trail. Fortunately if you are forced to wait behind others, you have amazing views of the Moab desert and can actually see Corona Arch from here.

Slightly difficult rope passage on the rocky ascent, with small steps set into the rock. Further up there is a ladder with a slightly difficult entry/exit at the top.

The only difficulty of the trail to Corona Arch. Not really a problem thanks to the chain and steps carved into the rock. I find the queues at the top and bottom of the rope worse.
