Bridal Veil Falls American Fork Canyon and Provo River Trail

Directions: Just off of Highway 189 out of Provo and just before Deer Creek. A pull off is located at Nunn's Park, but if you want to bike on a beautiful trail you can access it at the Provo Canyon Bike trailhead and can get on at the gas station just off of 800 N just before turning onto 189, at Canyon View Park or Canyon Glenn Park.  This paved trail is for bikes, roller blades, scooters, big wheels, tyke bikes, pedestrians, dogs and strollers. If you just want to do the lazy walk (like we did today) you can drive pretty much right up to the falls and park just across the Provo River.

Difficulty: Pretty flat and easy to get to, good for all ages. If you access through the bike trails, also not too hard as manifested by the little guy with gusto on the big wheel who rode up from one of the parks.

Duration: However long you want it to be. You can make your trip as long as the hike and full bike path ride (going from down in Provo even as far down at the River bottoms all the way up to Vivian Park) or as short as parking across from the falls and walking over the little bridge to the viewing area.
There is also an unpaved trail further up the canyon where you can hike up to where the fall splits.

The falls is 607 Feel and is made up of two falls that tumble down into a rocky area and then a small pool where there is a trout pond and then on to join the Provo River.
For a quarter you can feed the fat trout but you can't eat them.

Its a lovely and relaxing visit and a wonderful beautiful trail to ride.
This is a great family outing and good for the dog too if you want. Just make sure to clean up after your pet as this is a high traffic area and no one wants the remains of what your dog left of the trail to be on the bottom of their shoe.
