Midgley Bridge Hike

Route Description for Midgley Bridge Hike

The Midgley Bridge hike is a fun trip for hikers of all ages that leads you to a viewpoint over the Midgley Bridge and down the Huckaby Trail. It’s a mostly flat hike that makes for a relaxing stroll before a picnic in the picnic area or as a warm-up for other hikes in the area.

Start from the picnic area. You’ll head down across the road (cross carefully) to the Oak Creek Vista, where you can snap photos of the bridge and admire the unique scenery of this canyon. Turn around to hike along Huckaby Trail, continuing where it becomes Oak Creek Spur A.

The canyon here is beautiful, with lush forest and red rock canyons making for a scene not often associated with Arizona. The trail ends near the Grasshopper Point Picnic Area. From here, you can turn back and follow the same route to the trailhead. Set up your picnic or head on to your next adventure!
