Little Cedar Mountain Loop Trail

Little Cedar Mountain Loop offers more than you’d expect from a 3.4-mile trail. The views of Nickajack Lake are the obvious draw, and they do not disappoint, especially when the sun catches the water just right. Located near Jasper, the trail has a welcoming, almost quiet atmosphere that makes it approachable year-round.

It is a mix of rock outcrops, wooded areas, and a few gentle inclines that make for just enough movement to feel satisfying. You will find places where the trail opens up to wide views and others where it narrows between trees. It is easy to see why people return to this one. It is not dramatic, but it is steady and beautiful in its own way.
