Wonderful hike starting in Moab valley south of town. Hike begins with rapid ascent to top of Moab rim, where it levels out for easy hiking in gentle valleys filled with Juniper and tall grasses. Hike can be an out and back or a through hike if two cars are used: one at Hidden Valley Trailhead and the other at the Moab Rim Trailhead.

Wonderful open desert hike on sandstone to a classic Moab icon. A 3mi round trip, Corona Arch is not located in a National Park and is a great spot for a picnic during Spring and Fall. Locals have been known to make this hike during the full moon. There is a location with a small wooden ladder to aid in scaling a slickrock bench. Hike is generally safe but there are some cliffs near the arch, similar to delicate arch.
