This is my favorite place to hike in the park, mostly because it offers many spur options and a lot of different arches and rock formations to see. When you see photos of fields of rock fins, this may be that trail. This loop is fairly long relative to other hikes in the park, and there is some sandstone sections to climb. Kids can do it, and it is a real adventure. It can get really hot and is totally exposed, so bring water, and expect to explore.
