The Rim Trail above Virgin is a small four-mile route that runs along a low cliff edge above the town. The rim view looks south across UT-9 toward the Hurricane Cliffs, and the trail itself is intermediate dirt with short slickrock benches. It is a local Virgin ride more than a destination — the kind of trail residents know and visitors stumble onto by accident.
What it isn't
This trail is not Hurricane Rim, which is a different and longer trail in the JEM system across the valley. Confusion between the two is common in trip-planning forums; visitors should confirm which Rim a route is actually referencing before driving to a trailhead.
Where it sits in the 435
The Virgin Rim Trail is one of several smaller informal trails on the Virgin side of the Hurricane Valley. Visitors planning a serious bike day should head to Gooseberry, Smith, Wire Mesa, or Guacamole instead. This stub exists for entity-graph completeness and to disambiguate from the better-known Hurricane Rim.
