Little Rock Trail is a mountain biking route in Utah's Uinta-Wasatch-Cache National Forest, within the Pleasant Grove Ranger District. The Forest Service manages the land, and the trail rises from about 5,400 feet to about 7,200 feet over roughly 2.7 miles, with a total elevation gain of 1,862 feet. Summer is the most comfortable time to ride. Typical averages from a nearby weather station at Sundance, which sits about 600 feet lower than the trail's high point, show July highs around 81°F with lows near 58°F, while winter highs stay near freezing. The trail makes a good base for exploring the surrounding area. Little Rock Canyon Boulders and the Little Rock Canyon hike both lie about half a mile away, and the Squaw Peak Ridge Trail is a similar distance off. Hope campground is about 0.9 miles away.
