Bunny Flat Trail

Bunny Flat Trail

The Bunny Flat Trail is where snowmobilers can head into the Old Ski Bowl area, it accesses all routes for climbers and hikers on the south and west sides, and it is where tourists and anyone else that want to check out the mountain go. The road is the main access point for all winter activities, because they keep the road plowed to Bunny Flat. Through Bunny Flat Trail you can take a day hike to Horse Camp, Lake Helen and Hidden Valley. Make sure you respect the area by leaving only footprints.

🌿 Tucked just off the highway in Dunsmuir lies a little slice of magic — Hedge Creek Falls! This easy walk leads to a waterfall you can literally walk behind, with mist on your face and views of Mt. Shasta peeking through the trees. A perfect quick stop that feels like a secret. 💦✨
