Brumley Arch Trail
Difficulty Rating:
The Brumley Arch trail is a short but steep, dog-friendly trail in the Manti-La Sal National Forest. This hike leads you not only to a spectacular arch but to a secret slot canyon, a babbling brook, and a tumbling waterfall. This hike is also a great way to spend time enjoying the outdoors with your four-legged friend—just be sure that your pup is kept on leash for the duration of your hike.

From highway 128, turn down La Sal Loop Road at Porcupine Canyon and follow the road south for 22.7mi before turning left onto Geyser Pass Road. Follow this road for 3.0mi to the Squaw Springs Trailhead—the Brumley Arch Trail begins here.

Brumley Arch Trail Description
The Brumley Arch Trail is a low-traffic hike in a breathtaking section of the Manti-La Sal National Forest. This path has sections that are steep and loose, so be prepared with proper footwear and bring hiking poles if you need the extra support. This trail has it all: a stunning sandstone arch, a cool and refreshing creek to dip your toes, a secret little slot canyon, and a gorgeous cascading waterfall. The Brumley Arch Trail is the perfect reprieve from the hot, sandy, crowded trails of Arches and Moab.
From the trailhead, follow the path south for 0.6mi to a divide just after the trail takes a sharp turn westward. Follow the path on the right down into the Brumley Creek Canyon. Follow the trail for another 0.3mi to Brumley Arch.
Cool your feet in Brumley Creek and enjoy the peace and serenity of the forest before following your own footsteps back to the trailhead.
