A spectacularly beautiful and pristine red rock canyon full of amazing views. The first seven miles can be ridden on an ATV but the wonderful natural arches (Angel Arch, Cathedral Arch and Keystone Arch) require a short hike further up Arch Canyon from the end of the ATV trail at the Texas Canyon intersection. At the mouth of Arch Canyon, there is a natural spring and some ancient Indian ruins.
