Get Reservations for Arches Yet? Moab Adventure Center Bails Out Visitors Without Entry Pass

MOAB, Utah - Feb. 8, 2023 - PRLog -- Moab Adventure Center in the red rock playground of Moab, Utah, is prepared to guide its clients through the National Park Service's (NPS) second consecutive season of requiring advance permits to access Arches National Park.

"If you snooze you may lose," underscores Sierra Schmutz, General Manager of the Moab Adventure Center. "However, people who are unable to get permits in a timely fashion can still count on our popular, daily guide-led programs that offer entry to Arches on a space available basis."

Two of Moab Adventure Center's tours are morning and sunset adventures led by guides who share information and wisdom about this magical landscape. Each trip is 4 hours. Rates include snacks, water and Park entrance fees. Guests relax in a bus or a Sprinter Van with high ceilings and large picture windows for maximum viewing comfort. There are several stops to get up close with the terrain on short, scenic hikes. The rate is $108 for adults and $88 for ages 5 to 18.

What began as a trial run policy in 2022 to upgrade the visitor experience by eliminating overcrowding will now take effect as an NPS standard operating procedure. This means that from April 1 to Oct. 1, 2023, visitors will need to secure in advance a timed entry reservation in order to enter Arches National Park between 7 a.m. and 4 p.m. The window for booking reservations opened January 10, 2023. Reservations are accepted on a first-come, first-served basis on Recreation.gov (http://www.recreation.gov/).

Reservations must be secured three months in advance of the anticipated date of visiting Arches. A single booking of a timed entry ticket covers each registered visitor (an individual, couple, group or family). Guests may enjoy the park all day, entering and re-entering at will with the validated ticket. See more information on Arches National Park reservations and timed-entry tickets (https://www.moabadventurecenter.com/arches-national-park/timed-entry-reservations).

The timed entry program does not apply to tour operators such as Moab Adventure Center who have concessions contracts. If tourists miss getting a reservation or something unexpected comes up, Moab Adventure Center can always get them into the park as long as there's a scheduled tour operating and there is space.
