Bells Canyon Trail to Lower Falls
From Bell Canyon Preservation Trailhead, the route joins Bells Canyon Trail and climbs through open Wasatch foothills toward Lower Bells Canyon Reservoir, with valley views widening behind the path.
Beyond the reservoir, the itinerary follows Bells Canyon Creek into a more enclosed canyon, where the track shifts from a broader dirt way to a rougher mountain trail among brush, granite outcrops, woodland, and a creek crossing.
The final approach steepens on rocky single-track and ends at Lower Bell Canyon Waterfall, a lively cascade set among boulders and forested Wasatch canyon walls.
