Park Avenue Trailhead is a popular park within Arches National Park that offers an exciting hike around some of the biggest monoliths in the area. The one-mile trail is located 2.5 miles north of the visitors’ center and follows the canyon below the giant structures. Visitors can admire some of the most renowned sandstone towers, such as The Three Gossips, Queen Nefertiti, Queen Victoria Rock, and The Tower of Babel. There are two trailheads, with one at the previous mentioned point and another at Courthouse Towers Parking Lot. Both offer amazing views of the canyon, valleys, and fascinating formations painted by the red hues of desert sands.
