    About this experience

    Unlike standard tours that hike an additional 3 miles to the highway to a shuttle vehicle that takes you back, our Medieval Chamber experience combines true canyoneering, real climbing and a secret hike out. Once you are done with the rappelling part of the adventure, you'll climb out of the canyon on rope with full support—no hiking an additional 3 miles of crowds back to a shuttle vehicle. This tour does a full circle back to your vehicles. Our tours are led by a veteran local guide, and designed to give you the most immersive and hands-on adventure in Moab.

    Safe and Fun

    Expertly run experience. I have rock climbed and rappelled before. My other family members had not. Colton was safe and patient with the entire family. He was extremely knowledgeable about the safety systems for this activity. I watched other groups doing the same activity using a single rope system. Colton used a 2 rope system which is much safer especially for novice participants. Primary rappel rope and a secondary belay rope. I would not have gone with a guide using a single rope system. I will leave the single rope system for the firemen, military and experienced climbers.

    Amazing!!!!

    Great veteran owned business!!!! I’m slow due to injuries and the guide made sure I could do everything safely. I got to use climbing equipment I’d never seen before. The views are amazing. It’s on a state park so you miss some of crowds at the bigger parks. Incredible experience. If you have a mountain bike bring it. The tour is on the same park with one of worlds best rides. The tour had an early start which left me time to hit up Arches National Park and Canyonlands National Park. Just make sure you pack everything you need to do all 3 before you leave camp in the morning.

    Response from the operator: Thank you so much for the awesome review and for supporting a veteran-owned business. Really glad we were able to make the adventure work well with your injuries and still keep it safe, fun, and challenging. You did great out there, and I’m glad you got to experience some of the climbing and technical systems that make these adventures unique. Dead Horse Point really is an underrated area too — incredible scenery without some of the chaos and crowds of the bigger parks. And absolutely — that area has some world-class mountain biking. Thanks again for coming out, and I appreciate you taking the time to leave such a detailed review.

    Morning Glory Arch: Rappel and Climb: questions travelers ask

    Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Moab.

    How much does Morning Glory Arch: Rappel and Climb cost?

    +

    Prices start at $225 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Moab usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.

    How long does Morning Glory Arch: Rappel and Climb take?

    +

    Plan for about 5 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Moab is not rushed.

    Is Morning Glory Arch: Rappel and Climb worth it?

    +

    It holds an Outty Ranking of 60 out of 100, which we label "Solid Choice". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 3 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Moab, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.

    Can I cancel or reschedule Morning Glory Arch: Rappel and Climb?

    +

    Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.

    Is Morning Glory Arch: Rappel and Climb suitable for kids and families?

    +

    Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 5-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.

    How far in advance should I book Morning Glory Arch: Rappel and Climb?

    +

    Around 1 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Moab can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.

    What should I bring or wear?

    +

    Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Moab and add a light layer if any part of the 5-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.

    Where does Morning Glory Arch: Rappel and Climb start and how do I get there?

    +

    The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Moab within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.

    What are the best things to do in Moab?

    +

    Moab is the gateway to Arches and Canyonlands: sunrise arch tours, 4x4 runs on Hell's Revenge, Colorado River rafting, canyoneering and dark-sky stargazing. Park entry timing systems change often, so we weight tours that handle reservations for you. On Outty we rank every Moab experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include HIGHLY RATED U-DRIVE Moab Hell’s Revenge UTV Off-Road Adventure, BEST! Hell's Revenge U-Drive 4X4 Tour in Moab +Dinosaur Tracks!, 5-STAR Moab Hell's Revenge UTV U-DRIVE TOUR + DINO TRACKS. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.

    When is the best time to visit Moab?

    +

    April to May and September to October, avoiding peak summer heat. Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.

    How many days do you need in Moab?

    +

    Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.

    Do I book through Outty or through the operator?

    +

    Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
