Located on the western flank of the San Francisco Peaks, Bismarck Lake Trail is an easy one mile trail ascending a gentle grade up through a beautiful forest of aspen, fir, and pine to a large meadow. The meadow offers stunning, unobstructed views of the San Francisco Peaks. The trail splits, the left for a short spur leading to a small, frequently dry tank named Bismarck Lake. The right fork heads up a quarter of a mile further to meet the Arizona Trail, offering opportunities for longer outings southeast through Hart Prairie and up to the Arizona Snowbowl, or north towards Little Tank and beyond.
