Morning Glory Arch Moab, UT 84532 ☎ +1 435-259-7019 Last Updated: 07/04/2025 |
| Morning Glory Arch is the world's sixth largest, depending on how you measure. While massive in size, it plays a clever game of hide-and-seek below the Medieval Chamber and is suspended in silence above the gurgling echoes of the grotto at the upper end of Grandstaff Canyon. Seeing it suspends belief, and rappelling from it makes it all the more memorable. | |
| Morning Glory Arch, with a span of 243 feet is indisputably one of the ten largest arches in the world. Only ten natural arches in the world exceed 200 feet. The Colorado Plateau has nine, six of those in Utah. While one of the world's largest arches in the world, it is difficult to photograph due to a mere fifteen feet of separation from the cliff alcove to which it was once bonded. But that's the very thing that makes it so great for rappelling! | |
