The three people fell into the lower bowl area below Delicate Arch at around 7:30 a.m. local time, the Grand County Sheriff's Office said in a news release.
A 65-year-old man and 60-year-old woman were found dead, the sheriff's office said. The third person, a 30-year-old man, was flown to a regional hospital, the release said.
All three individuals are believed to be from California and may be related, the sheriff's office said.
Chief Ranger Scott Brown told CNN affiliate KSL-TV that the cause of the fall is still unknown, though the trail was wet and slick at the time of the incident.
The Delicate Arch is a "widely recognized symbol of the state of Utah and one of the most famous geologic features in the world," according to the National Park Service website.
