Detailed Trail Description

You'll find this trailhead at the Lucia Falls trailhead when you enter Multon Falls Park. Follow the signs in this area so you end up at the right location. Otherwise, it can be easy to get lost along the way. The reason we recommend this well for experienced bikers is that hiking up the mountain is extremely difficult and requires plenty of endurance.

In addition, the path downhill is equally as steep, so you need to think quickly while riding. If you're looking to make the most out of this experience, you can book a campsite so you'll have plenty of time to explore. In addition, booking a campsite could be beneficial because you're going to be tired when you complete this hike.

Things to Consider

Bells Mountain Trail is not for the faint of heart. In addition to the steep climb to the top, there are plenty of obstacles along the way that you'll need to watch out for.

• Bushes
• Tree roots
• Steep hill
• Slippery sections
• Trees in the way

The good news is that you don't have to worry much about pedestrians on this trail because it's popular among biking enthusiasts. This gives you one less thing to worry about while navigating this difficult area.

This is the top-rated trail in the area because many people enjoy the exercise and the reward that comes with it. You're not hiking up the hill for no reason; you have an objective at the end. Plus, taking the hill downwards is fun.

Sightseeing and Related Trails

If you're still hungry for adventure, there are more trails by the campground at the end of this section. However, most riders are exhausted at the end and just want to take a nap. The sightseeing opportunity comes at the top of this trail after you climb the mountain and before you travel downhill. You'll have a spectacular view of the surrounding area from a vantage point you had to work to earn.

Conclusion

Are you concerned that you'll be too tired to move at the end of your journey? You're not alone. Camping is an extremely popular activity in this area because the hike and bike ride section of this trail is grueling for the average person. This is a must-see destination for an experienced bike rider that's not afraid of a strong hike.
