Horses prohibited on Bell Rock Pathway
One of many loop options beginning at the Bell Vista Trailhead. Follow Bell Rock Pathway and join the Courthouse Butte Loop Trail. Then pick up the Big Park Loop to rejoin the Bell Rock Pathway near the starting point.
Mostly an easy hike with some moderate sections. Don't count on any shade so be prepared with plenty of water and the proper clothing. Great scenery on the loop.
