Draper Suspension Bridge #11
from Hidden Valley Park
hikers: 2
distance: 3.27 miles
elevation gain: 348 feet
The trail from Hidden Valley Park is longer, but not as much elevation gain. It is a nice and enjoyable trail. Here is what it looked like on strava.
We parked at Hidden Valley Park and started at this sign near the corner of the parking lot.
There is a paved trail. There are also other ways to walk through the park and get on the trail.
This was a pretty part of the trail.
This is an access road that goes to some kind of water facility.
The Bonneville Shoreline trail goes down from this road.
Crosses a bridge over Little Willow Creek,
and goes up.
This is a rocky tail. There are some bikes.
Lots of views of the Valley since you are on the side of the mountain.
These rocks are my favorite part of this trail. You walk between them.
We saw a paraglider.
You can see the bridge ahead. Almost there.
A view looking down at the water from the bridge.
From the Hidden Valley Park trailhead you stay on the Bonneville Shoreline trail. From the Orson Smith Park you do the Bridge Loop.
This was a good switchup from our usual hike.
It takes a little more time but is not as steep and very pleasant.
