Coming to Moab for Memorial Day weekend? We’ve got a few tips for helping visitors navigate a busy travel weekend.
1️⃣ Purchase a pass before you go to Arches
You can purchase a National Park pass online or in town at the Moab Infomation Center. Bring it with you to speed up your entrance!
2️⃣ Check the Arches Entrance Webcam
Check the webcam before you go to the park to check if there is a line.
3️⃣ Arrive before 7 am or after 2 pm
Avoid peak times, and arrive early if you’re planning to do popular hikes like Delicate Arch or Devil’s Garden. Or, visit the park in the afternoon, or after dark!
4️⃣ Stay flexible
If popular locations are busy, try visiting a different area of the park.
& don’t forget about Canyonlands National Park! 🏜️

Weekend plans anyone?
Dirt biking is an amazing way to explore the greater Moab area beyond the nearby national parks. Guides can show you the ropes (meet this guide family in our Who Is Moab series - link in bio!) and set up your gear - or, if you’re experienced, you can rent a bike in town and do your own exploring.
Who’s in?

In awe of the Milky Way as it rose over Delicate
Arch 🌌
On the first night of my road trip through Utah, I decided to leave Moab at 1am in the morning to hike up to Delicate Arch to photograph the Milky Way. I was the only one up there and for about 3 hours I watched as the Milky Way slowly rose above the horizon and positioned itself behind delicate arch.
Some of the clearest night skies I’ve seen, what a spectacular sight!

Sunrise from Mesa Arch in Canyonlands National Park 🏜️
I arrived about 30 minutes before sunrise, and this spot was already packed with photographers! But despite the crowds, Mesa Arch left me in awe. As the sun rises over the distant mountains, the light reflects off the rocks onto the underside of the arch and casts a deep red hue. Pair that with a perfect sun star and you’ve got a winning image!
Much more to come as I road trip through @visitutah …
