Pine Tree Arch is a large natural sandstone arch located in the Devil's Garden area of Arches National Park near Moab, Utah. The arch measures 149 feet in span.

Name

[edit]

Pine Tree Arch is named after the various pine trees that can be seen under and around the formation.[citation needed]

Access

[edit]

The arch can be accessed from the Devil's Garden Trailhead, approximately 18 miles from the park entrance.[2] The trail is relatively flat and stops by Tunnel Arch and the much larger Landscape Arch.[3]
