Albion Meadows and Cecret Lake Trails

This one was a little out of the way for us, but it was well worth the trip! We drove up to Albion Basin in Alta, UT and did two trails in one day. It was intense, but absolutely beautiful and if I had the day to do again, I wouldn't have changed a thing. We did the Upper Albion Meadows Trail and the Cecret Lake Trail.

Location: Albion Basin in Alta, UT. Here are the directions from Provo, UT and here are the directions from Salt Lake City, UT.
Distance: Upper Albion Meadows Trail is 1.5 miles one way and Cecret Lake Trail is 1 mile one way. Here's a map of the trails!
Kid-Friendly: Yes
Toddler-Friendly: Yes
Baby-Friendly: Strap 'em on!
Special Notes: The end of the Cecret Lake Trail gets a little steep. Make sure you take the switchbacks! We accidentally followed another path and got stuck in a very precarious situation on the side of the mountain. But if you take the switchbacks, it is perfectly doable for little ones!
