The Boulder Canyon Trail runs throughout the trees and hills behind the Vestavia Hills Library and features a nature trail, bridge and waterfall. It forms a circle over the course of 1.3 miles that you can enter from behind the library or along Merry Fox Lane near the Vestavia Hills Elementary School.

The nature preserve encompasses a pine-hardwood forest, and its leafy canopy shades hikers as they explore. As you enter, some wooden stairs will guide you down into the trail and will lead you to a bridge to help you cross a stream. The path contains numerous uphill and downhill slopes, so come prepared wearing sturdy shoes. Throughout your hike, you will discover benches placed along the trail to provide a rest area for hikers.

This woodland contains extensive natural beauty you should admire, such as streams that wind their way through the trees and the gorgeous, forested shade. You will also find some gentle waterfalls and may even get a glance at our natural wildlife that inhabits the trail.

I could not find a name for this waterfall so I’m going to name it Boulder Canyon Falls.
