Description

This trail starts by the East Lawn Cemetery with access from the pull-off parking on Timpview Drive. The trail goes through the foothills and winds around Cascade Mountain into Provo Canyon before merging with the Provo River Parkway near Bridal Veil Falls. This trail features great views of Utah Valley and the Provo Canyon. It is a dirt trail, and is not very technical, but does have some relatively steep climbs that may be difficult for beginning riders.

In general, the trail is well marked with signs whenever it intersects other dirt trails or roads. Great for getting away from the city and being more in the mountains! A really fun ride that starts right in Provo.

The beginning of the hike up was super steep and gravely. Not fun. Descent down was fun but bushy. Bring gloves to protect hands

Tried riding the first part, but had to walk most of it. Ended up going over the hill higher up on Squaw Peak Rd. The rest was nice to the falls. 5.4mi

Started at the cemetery. The first several switch backs are pretty sketchy, going up and coming down. Lots of growth on the side of the trail. T… 5.4mi

Trail had some steep sections with lots of loose rock, which made for plenty of walking up. Not super well marked either. Otherwise, pretty fun trail. 4.1mi
