Mesa Arch is a pothole arch in Canyonlands National Park, Utah. Mesa Arch is a famous structure in the Island in the Sky District of Canyonlands National Park.

The arch is located right on the rim of the plateau. After taking photos, continue the easy loop trail to return to your car or backtrack and return the way you came in. Mesa Arch is an easy to visit landmark in the Island in the Sky region of Canyonlands National Park. This pothole arch spans across the mesa’s edge, framing a scenic canyon vista. A half-mile loop trail brings you right up to Mesa Arch, one of the park’s most popular points of interest. As you hike, keep and eye on the edge of the mesa for sneak peaks of the iconic arch. The trail ends in front of an elegant stone that spans fifty feet across the top of a 500-foot vertical cliff. Mesa Arch is classified as a pothole arch because it was formed by surface water that pooled on the sandstone behind the arch, slowly eroding the rock. The result is an arch that dangles across the mesa’s edge. The arch is beautiful any time of day, but if you end up here around sunrise or sunset, you will likely be in for a beautiful show. Mesa Arch in the Island in the Sky mesa of Canyonlands National Park is the most famous sunrise point.
