Bell Canyon Waterfall

Details

Saturday, July 26th. Meet at the trailhead for Lower Bell Canyon Waterfall.

The Bell Canyon Trail is a local favorite that offers a mix of beauty, challenge, and adventure. Located at the base of the Wasatch Mountains in Sandy, Utah, this trail provides hikers with stunning views of Salt Lake Valley, cascading waterfalls, and a peaceful reservoir.

The hike begins with a steep incline, leading to the Lower Bell Canyon Reservoir—a great spot to catch your breath and enjoy the scenery. For those seeking more, continue up the trail to reach the iconic Bell Canyon waterfall. The journey to the falls is moderately challenging, with rocky terrain and switchbacks, but the breathtaking reward of rushing water and cool mist makes it worth the effort.

This trail is ideal for those looking for a quick nature escape or a challenging workout. It’s especially beautiful in spring when the waterfall is roaring or in fall when the canyon is ablaze with color.
