Arches National Park

Founded in: 1971

Size of the Park: 76,519 acres

Topography: With over 2,000 documented arches, it has the highest concentration of natural stone arches on Earth

Number of Annual Visitors: 1.5 million

Popular Hikes: Delicate Arch,  Devils Garden/Landscape Arch, and the Windows Section 

Breuer Fun Facts: One of our favorite stories told to us by a random person on the trails was about a kid who had had enough of hiking and seeing the various arches.  When asked by his parents to take yet another photo in front of an arch he responded “I am done with arches.  The only arches I want to see are the golden arches”.  Our kids thought that was the funniest story ever.
