About this spot

Wilson Arch

The Wilson Arch is a massive sandstone arch located in the Upper Colorado-Kane Springs watershed of Utah. It is situated just off of U.S. Route 191 and is a popular destination for tourists and hikers alike. The arch was named after Joe Wilson, a local pioneer who was known for his work as a mail carrier during the late 1800s. The arch is estimated to be around 100 million years old and was formed by the gradual erosion of the sandstone.

There are several great reasons to visit the Wilson Arch. The arch itself is an impressive sight to see and is a unique natural wonder that should not be missed. Visitors can hike around the base of the arch and take in the stunning views of the surrounding landscape. Additionally, the area is known for its hiking and rock climbing opportunities, and there are several trails nearby that offer a range of difficulty levels. Visitors can also enjoy camping in the nearby campgrounds and exploring the various natural features of the area, including the nearby Moab and Arches National Park.

Responsible visitation & Leave No Trace

Know before you go
Check the operator's site (BLM, NPS, state agency, or private owner) for access rules, permits, and seasonal closures before driving out.
Stay on trail
Many points of interest sit in fragile ecosystems. Stick to marked paths to protect vegetation and prevent erosion.
Respect wildlife
Observe from a distance, never feed wildlife, and give nesting birds and denning mammals plenty of space.
Pack it in, pack it out
Take all trash, food scraps, and gear back with you. Remote sites often have no trash service.
Leave what you find
Don't take rocks, plants, fossils, or artifacts. Federal law protects cultural and natural resources on public land.
