Bonneville Shoreline Trail: Provo Canyon Section Description

The Bonneville Shoreline Trail: Provo Canyon Section is a gorgeous hike just outside of Provo, Utah. This trail is intersected by a large number of spur trails and ATV tracks and finding the right path can be confusing so we recommend downloading a map before heading out. There is also a fair amount of private property around this trail, please be respectful of the signage and stick to the path.

The Provo Canyon Section of the Bonneville Shoreline Trail is a gorgeous hike with incredible views of the Provo Valley. This trail makes a fantastic trail run with varied terrain and a good incline; you can even bring your favorite four-legged running buddy along with you! If you do bring your pup on this trail, be mindful of other animals and wildlife; deer are often seen roaming this route and snacking along the trail.

From the trailhead at the Lower Bridalveil Falls parking area, follow the Provo River Parkway northeast for just 0.1mi before jackknifing southwest down the Bonneville Shoreline Trail (BST). After half a mile, you will start to see a number of spur trails and ATV tracks intersecting the BST, this is a good spot to pull out your map. Follow the Bonneville Shoreline Trail as it winds its way southwest for approximately 4.8mi until you reach the junction with North Brookshire Circle.

When you see the road, it’s time to turn back. From North Brookshire Circle, simply turn around and follow the same path northeast back to the Bridalveil Falls Parking area where you began.

Insider Hints
