Introduction

Balanced Rock is a famous landscape in Arches National Park, towering at 39 meters with a boulder on top equalling the size of three large school buses. Having stood majestic between earth and sky for millions of years, this colossal stone maintains a firm posture despite its seemingly precarious appearance, thanks to the combined forces of internal stability and external gravity. A mere 500 meters from the main road, visitors can take a 15-30 minute walk to admire this wonder in person, conveniently parked with access to public restrooms.
