The Corona Arch Trail is a nice three-mile round-trip hike to two amazing arches. The hike is located on BLM land several miles outside of Moab on Potash Road. Because it is located outside of the National Parks, it seems to fly under the radar a little bit. I'd been hiking southern Utah for about ten years before I finally found out about it. Apparently Corona Arch had become a popular place for people to tie ropes to and swing off of, until the BLM banned the practice when it started to get out of control.
I hiked to Corona Arch around sunset during Veterans Day weekend, and only saw a few other hikers along the trail. The trail is very well maintained, and there are even steel cables and a ladder to help you with the steep sections. Just before reaching Corona Arch you will see Bowtie Arch to your left in a small alcove.
