Brighton Hike with TreeUtah Arborist

Join Brighton Resort and Tree Utah as we stroll along a trail to learn about the trees and history of our canyon!

Join Tree Utah's expert Arborist, Ian Piesner, for a guided tour in some of Brighton's beautiful forests. Tours will begin the Brighton Lodge and head up a trail within our forests. We will learn about the various species of trees within our forests and the history (manmade and otherwise) that have contributed and shaped this beloved ecosystem.

We will use some of the time on the tour to pick up some garbage left over from snowmelt to help keep our mountains clean!

Tours will require a moderate hiking skill and are not recommended for children under the age of 5. The hike will be approximately 1 mile with some elevation gain and on uneven and rocky terrain.
