The Park Avenue Trail is a scenic hiking trail located in Arches National Park, Utah. It offers stunning views of towering red rock formations and unique geological features. It differs from many hikes in Arches because there are no arches along the trail. Instead you’ll hike past towering sandstone walls as you make your way down into a wash. From there you’ll hike through the wash across rocky and sandy terrain until you reach the parking area for It’s a fairly easy hike that truly immerses you into the desert environment.
