Route Description for Beaver Creek Trail

The Beaver Creek Trail is a lovely, low-traffic hiking route in the Western Uinta Mountains. This trail is short but has some rocky sections, so wear proper, supportive hiking footwear. If you are hiking with a dog, keep an eye out for wildlife such as deer and elk who roam the area; be sure to bring a leash for your pup in case you encounter wild animals. The Beaver Creek Trail begins and ends at the Taylor Fork Campground, making it the perfect route to spend an afternoon exploring before settling down for a night under the Utah stars.

From the Taylor Fork Campground, follow the path west along Beaver Creek. Stay right at the fork to continue to the trail’s end at the bridge crossing over Beaver Creek.

At the bridge, simply turn around and retrace your steps back to the Taylor Fork Campground where you began.
