More Cowbell makes an excellent short trail run, and can be combined with other Gooseberry trails to make a longer route.

This is a 3-mile loop that's relatively flat and offers incredible views of the surrounding landscape. It winds around the rim of a mesa and passes alongside other trails that are all popular with hikers as well as mountain bikers.

You can expect to see views of the Pine Valley Mountain range, surrounding mesas, and the towering temples of Zion National Park. In the surrounding vegetation you can see prickly pear, sage, and other desert plants that bloom in the spring and summer. The trail hugs the mesa's edge for much of it's length, so stay aware of the cliff edges and tripping hazards. Overall it is an easy run with just a few small ups and downs on relatively smooth trail.

Desert sage, prickly pear, and yucca thrives here. Jackrabbits, lizards, and many small birds live among them. Red tail hawks patrol the air. and if your lucky you may see a coyote in the area.
