Another impressive sandstone arch in Devils Garden.

Pine Tree Arch is located on the Devils Garden Trail. You have to take a short detour from the main trail to reach it.

The Devil's Garden Trail is the longest and most arched hiking trail in Arches National Park and is considered one of its main highlights. The trail is highly varied and leads through a dramatic landscape of towering sandstone "fins," requiring some climbing and a head for heights. The trail accesses the largest concentration of natural stone arches in the park. The first section is a wide, well-maintained trail and leads directly to Landscape Arch, the longest arch in North America.

The Wolfe Ranch in Arches National Park is a historic settlement site and the starting point for the hike to the famous Delicate Arch. A simple log cabin (built in 1906) and other remnants (such as a cellar and a pen) of a small ranch founded by Civil War veteran John Wesley Wolfe in the late 19th century. Located on Salt Wash, northeast of present-day Moab, where Wolfe and his family attempted to raise cattle and farm in isolation, the ranch remains serve as a historical attraction and a parking area and trailhead for the popular Delicate Arch hiking trail and a short trail to petroglyphs (rock carvings). It offers a glimpse into the harsh pioneer life in arid Utah.

The Devil's Garden Trail is the longest and most arched hiking trail in Arches National Park and is considered one of its main highlights. Highly varied; it leads through a dramatic landscape of towering sandstone "fins" (rock ridges). The trail features the largest concentration of natural stone arches in the park. The first section is a wide, well-maintained path and leads directly to Landscape Arch, the longest arch in North America. The trail becomes more challenging beyond Landscape Arch. The full loop, known as the Primitive Trail, requires surefootedness, easy scrambling over slickrock (smooth rocks), and good orientation skills. Important arches (besides Landscape Arch): Tunnel Arch, Pine Tree Arch, Double O Arch, and optional Private Arch and the Dark Angel rock needle. Total length (complete loop including all detours): approximately 12 km (7.9 miles).

Quite a strenuous trail to Double O Arch. Surefootedness is essential, and you should be free from vertigo, as the Primitive Trail leads over slippery rocks.

Be sure to go through the arch to the back and then climb the rock for another 30 meters to the left. From there, you'll have a wonderful view of and through the rock arch. At the top, there's also a shady seating area with a perfect view.

Try to do this hike early in the morning or don’t forget your water. The track to the arch is rather easy.
