BEAR CANYON BRIDGE HIKE

ENJOY AN OUT AND BACK HIKE FROM HIDDEN VALLEY PARK TO TWO BEAR CANYON BRIDGES!


BONNEVILLE SHORELINE MIDDLE TRAIL
From HIDDEN VALLEY PARK there are three options that will connect with the Bonneville Shoreline trail southbound.
The first trail leads to the upper Bonneville Shoreline.
The next trail leads to the lower Bonneville Shoreline.
Sorry, No dogs are allowed on the Hidden Valley section of the Bonneville shoreline trail.
Dog owners need to walk on the paved trail to the south and take the Acqueduct trail to a steep gravel road connecting with the Bonneville Shoreline trail section that allows dogs.

When you reach the bridge, cross it and hike up to old bridge.  This makes a scenic loop, for your return hike.
The entire hike, out and back is about 3 miles.
