Pine Tree and Tunnel Arches Details
From the Devils Garden trail head, Tunnel and Pine Tree Arches are side excursions from the popular Landscape Arch. A well marked side trail takes you directly to Pine Tree Arch, clearly named for trees it frames. Wander under the arch if you dare to look straight up to the cracks in the sandstone. Tunnel Arch, more of a giant hole in the rock that resembles a pudgy doughnut is a few hundred feet off the wide and sandy trail.
