Frequently Asked Questions

Yes — a private tour means a genuinely personalized experience.
4.5 hours.
In Moab, UT.
Genuinely remote by this park's standards — reaching them means driving roughly 7 miles one-way on the unpaved, high-clearance Klondike Bluffs Road in Arches' far northwest corner, ground that visitors sticking to the paved main road and its parking lots at Delicate Arch or the Windows never cover.
Prospector Alexander Ringhoffer first explored the area, which he called "Devil's Garden," with his sons and son-in-law in December 1922. His own inscription marking the discovery is still visible carved near the arch's base.

About This Tour

A private tour for your group only, aboard a 4x4 — real Marching Men, Tower Arch, and Eye of the Whale, in Arches' genuine backcountry. This is a private tour for your group only, with a private guide aboard a 4x4. A private tour means a genuinely personalized experience. Real backcountry stops include Marching Men, Tower Arch, and Eye of the Whale — remote Arches formations most visitors never see.

Most visitors to Arches never leave the paved main park road, which means they never see Klondike Bluffs — a section of the park's remote northwest corner reachable only by unpaved backcountry roads rated for high-clearance 4x4 vehicles. Klondike Bluffs Road itself runs about 7 miles one-way (14 round trip) from its junction with Salt Valley Road, crossing sandy washes, rocky ledges, and washboard stretches that a standard passenger car simply can't handle. That access is exactly what opens up Marching Men, Tower Arch, and Eye of the Whale — three formations most of Arches' roughly two million annual visitors drive right past without ever seeing.

Tower Arch, the sixth-largest arch in the park with a 92-foot span, sits at the heart of Klondike Bluffs — an area prospector Alexander Ringhoffer called "Devil's Garden" when he first explored it with his sons and son-in-law in December 1922. Ringhoffer later became one of the local advocates who pushed for the area's protection, and his own inscription, carved to mark the arch's discovery, can still be found near its base. Tower Arch itself got its current name during a 1933–34 scientific survey led by Frank Beckwith, the same expedition that also named Delicate Arch and Landscape Arch.

About halfway along the road to Tower Arch stands the Marching Men: seven slender sandstone pillars, weathered by wind and water into a row atop a sandstone fin, standing shoulder to shoulder above Salt Valley like soldiers at attention. The formation sits in the stretch of backcountry that was only added to Arches in 1971, when the original, smaller national monument was expanded and upgraded to full national park status — a reminder that this whole corner of the park has been open to visitors for barely half a century.

Eye of the Whale, reached via the Willow Flats Road jeep trail roughly 2.2 miles to a trailhead followed by a short half-mile hike, is a different kind of formation altogether — an old fin-style arch weathered straight through a wall of Entrada sandstone, with a 37-foot span and a thickness of 25 feet. It sits in an area called Herdina Park, a reef-like outcropping of fins and arches almost directly east of Balanced Rock and the Windows, though you'd never guess it from how few people ever make it out here.
