About Canyon Trail
This route climbs from downtown Hot Springs up West Mountain, linking the town to a network of short, interconnected trails above. The trailhead sits behind the Mountain Valley Water building, and the climb is steepest between West Mountain Drive and the West Mountain Trail. Bathhouse Row and the Fordyce Visitor Center are a short walk from the start, so the climb pairs naturally with a stroll through town.
