The good thing about Arches is that anywhere you go, there you are, and anywhere that happens to be the there in which you currently also happen to be guaranteed to be mind-meltingly gorgeous. But, as good as everywhere is, there are some attractions you’ll kick yourself for missing. We’re talking 100 percent, wish-you-were-here postcard gold. So if your time is limited and you can’t see everything, make a list, check it twice and head for the petrified hills!
