With its world-famous Delicate Arch, Arches National Park is one of the most visited places in the U.S., and after seeing its beauty I can definitely understand. That said, less than a hundred miles from its entrace you will find Canyonlands National Park and it is a must when you come to the area.

Though Canyonlands has its own awe-inspiring arch, it is not the one that you’ll find in Utah’s license plate so it isn’t as famous. That makes this park less crowded, and that and the fact that it has a beautiful campground inside its Island in the Sky location, puts this place a the top of our list. That said, both are a must-see if you visit Utah.
