Sand Dune Arch

Sand Dune Arch is one of the marked and trailed arches in Arches National Park.  It is really fun for kids to play under because of the immense amount of sand!  It's possible to climb on top of the arch, although my fear of heights has always prevented me from doing so.  It is a short hike from the parking lot to reach the arch, and it shares the same trail as Broken Arch, and Magic Mystery Bridge (which is unmarked).
