Spectacular Scenery Designed by Nature
There is a long list of landmarks in Moab worth encountering, but Gemini Bridges comes with a reputation for thrills that’s hard to look past. Easily recognized as the side by side archways, the Gemini Bridges span an impressive 85 feet on the east side and 67 feet on the west. Visitors arrive by bike, ATV and on foot to get up close to these impressive stone structures that have long defined the Moab landscape.
Visiting the Gemini Bridges
Depending on how you plan to arrive at the Gemini Bridges trail, the amount of time you’ll want to set aside to see and explore it in its entirety will vary drastically. Those visitors arriving by vehicle should plan on at least 3 hours while those arriving on two wheels will want to spare 8-hours at a minimum for enjoying all of the surrounding trails, pathways, and scenery. The trailhead leading to the Gemini Bridges is best accessed at mile marker 135.5 off of Highway 191. Just off this route, drivers will find a convenient parking lot to use.
