Customer Reviews

Very useful if you are new to Arches and Canyonlands

This book outlines some of the shorter hikes in Arches and Canyonlands National parks. I found it very useful, as it gave the distance of each hike and a brief description of what the trail was like, easy or difficult etc. I did find a few of the descriptions somewhat deceptive, as some of the hikes were more difficult than described, some of the "slight inclines" were actually pretty steep and required some climbing, which would be difficult for some people. However overall this book gives a good overview of the parks. The book itself is small enough to carry along with you, so it can be referred to at any time.

From short and fat to very fit , you can't beat these walks!

Regardless of your vigor, these walks make "the best (sights) of (one of) the best" national parks understandable and accessible. Because you know what you are getting into, each hike will be relaxed and enjoyable. Of course, the natural beauty is amazing!

Many people think that the best way to see these two greatcanyonlands parks is to drive through them. But you will have no senseof these places unless you get out of your car and take a walk. You don't have to be a backpacker to experience these places on foot.
