5 mi RT
There are two designated hiking trails by Deer Valley Resort:
Silver Lake Trail and Ontario Canyon Trail. Both start at Silver Lake Village and are about 2.5 miles one way to the top of Bald Mountain. The Silver Lake Trail is on the left side (East Face) and the Ontario Canyon Trial is on the right side (west face) of the mountain. Both are very well marked and maintained by Deer Valley Resort.
Just beyond the Silver Lake Village, there are two trails that lead up to the top of Deer Valley’s iconic Bald Mountain. Standing below the Sterling Express chairlift and looking up the mountain, the Ontario Canyon trail will be to your right, and the Silver Lake trail will be to your left. You can hike either of them as an up and back, or you can hike them both as a big loop in either direction. The round trip on this hike is about 5 miles with significant elevation changes (the trail starts at 8,100 feet and climbs up to 9,400 feet). The views at the top are well worth it, and the path along the way is also quite pleasant.
