Trail Description

The Fishhook Trail begins across the road from the Tukupetsi Trailhead. This short route connects hikers and cyclists to the Upper Graveyard Trail, and then to the Tempi’po’op Trail, one of main trails of the Santa Clara/Land Hill Area of Critical Environmental Concern (ACEC) and the Santa Clara River Reserve. The Fishhook trail is comprised of soft soils, requiring all horseback riders to access the area from the Upper Graveyard Trail at the Land Hill Trailhead.

Getting there

Tukupetsi Trailhead: From Saint George, travel north on Bluff Street, then merge left onto Sunset Boulevard. Continue driving on Sunset Boulevard as it turns into Santa Clara Drive. Turn left onto West 1700 North, Graveyard Wash. After 0.4 miles on this dirt road, you will reach the Tukupetsi Trailhead.
