Saddle Rock Trail gradually descends the steep slopes of Scotts Bluff to Scotts Spring and the Visitor Center, exposing eroding layers of sandstone, siltstone, and volcanic ash and offering close views of notable geologic features. The trail is about 1.6 miles long, and the one-way trip down takes about an hour. Steep drop-offs and loose rocks make footing dangerous, and thrown or rolling rocks can accelerate erosion and injure hikers below.
