Little Bridge Canyon Trail Details

A 20-foot-high natural arch is the highlight of the Little Bridge Canyon trail, which runs 3 miles into the canyon via a climb up an alluvial fan. There are actually two arches -- a smaller one about a half-mile into the canyon and the big one that spans the canyon about a mile in. The trailhead for this moderately strenuous hike is 3 miles west of the Scotty's Castle junction on Highway 190. Just park alongside of the road.
