The East 0.6 km of this trail (from Beaver Creek Campground to the wooden bridge) is wide wheelchair and stroller accessible trail.

The West half, however is a fun flowy singletrack that ends at the beginning of Horseshoe Canyon Trail. This loop is a great way to get the blood flowy before beginning the slog up Horseshoe Canyon Trail to rip down Beaver Creek Trail proper.
