A bike path connects the gateway community of Moab with the entrance to Arches, continuing up Highway 191 to Highway 313 (which leads to Canyonlands National Park and Dead Horse State Point). While there is not a dedicated bike lane along the scenic drive in Arches, signs do warn drivers that bikes might be present and to keep a minimum of three feet from all riders. If you plan to ride your bike in Arches:

1. Consider coming early in the morning when there is less traffic. When biking on the main road, please use caution and ride single file on the edge of the shoulder.
2.  Some of the narrowest road sections are along the switchbacks above the visitor center.Riders can skip this section by shuttling their bikes to the La Sal Mountain Overlook, where there is usually adequate parking.
3. The Salt Valley and Willow Springs roads are less traveled but are more suited to mountain bikes due to washboards, deep sand and other obstacles.
4. Bicycles are only permitted on roads: there is no single track or trail riding in the park.
