The Orson Smith Park to Draper Suspension Bridge Loop in Draper, Utah is a moderately challenging trail that spans approximately 1.95 miles. The trail begins at Orson Smith Park, a well-maintained area with ample parking and restroom facilities. From there, hikers will follow a well-marked path that gradually ascends through a mix of scrub oak and pine trees. The trail offers several unique features, including a large rock formation known as the "Lone Rock" and a small creek that runs parallel to the trail for a portion of the hike. The highlight of the trail is the Draper Suspension Bridge, a sturdy wooden bridge that offers panoramic views of the surrounding valley. Hikers should note that the trail can be steep and rocky in places, so sturdy footwear is recommended. The trail is also popular with mountain bikers, so hikers should be prepared to share the path. Despite these challenges, the Orson Smith Park to Draper Suspension Bridge Loop offers a rewarding hike with diverse scenery and interesting natural features.
