Great, short hike. Dog-friendly, but you must keep your dogs on a leash…this makes sense since the path up is narrower than I thought it would be. The bridge is also shorter than I expected. There are bathrooms, BUT they are closed for the season.

This trail has one way that is a faster incline, making it more of work out. The other trail to the bridge is a gradual incline, making it easier for some. Either trail leads to the suspension bridge. It is a beautiful area and definitely a must to go!

Loved this trail! The views of the valley are gorgeous, and the suspension bridge is such a fun reward at the top. The trail is well-maintained and it’s perfect to take your dogs with you!

It starts at about 5000 ft elevation and elevates about 700 feet to bridge point. I would say this is an easy trail, maybe moderate for beginners. But then again everyone's different so it's hard to say. Saw a few kids on the trail including my 9 and 15 year old.

What a wonderfully short and sweet hike suited for all ages. Dogs are also welcomed here so long as they remain on leash and please remember to clean up the poo and keep out trails looking fresh. This one starts out at Orson Smith parking area where there are picnic tables and bathrooms. Starting here head east up the switchback trail until aqueduct, follow signage for Bridge loop to make it a more enjoyable time. Also there is very little cover in the benches here in the wasatch so please bring sun protection and plenty of water as well. Stay safe and have fun!
