For a wonderful, long hike, try Devils Garden Primitive Loop trail. The longest maintained trail in the park, this 7.2-mile hike is for the advanced hiker as there are narrow ledges and exposure along the way. You’ll pass eight arches along the way, as well as the Dark Angel spire, a 125-foot feature that attracts rock climbers. Park officials discourage visitors from doing this hike when the desert is wet or snowy. To start your hike, park at the Devils Garden trailhead parking area.
