This is a 4:30 to 6:00 hours hike, depending on the number of breaks needed: Distance: 10 miles (out and back),elevation change: 900 feet, location: Azusa, CA, open to: Hikers with dogs. There are several river fords on the trail to cross. An easy-to-acquire wilderness permit is required to hike to the Bridge to Nowhere, as well as a national forest day use pass. You may self-register for a permit at the kiosk at the south end of the trailhead, or obtain one at the East Fork Ranger Station located on the road to the trailhead (or at other ranger stations in Angeles National Forest or San Gabriel Mountains National Monument). The permit is free. This trail begins within the national forest so an adventure pass (http://www.fs.usda.gov/detailfull/r5/passes-permits/recreation/?cid=stelprdb5208699&width=full) (day use pass) is required, and can also be purchased at the ranger station.

To get to the trailhead: From the 210 freeway in Azusa, take exit 40 north on Route 39. Drive 11.6 miles north, passing the East Fork Ranger Station at the base of the San Gabriel Mountains. Pass San Gabriel Reservoir and turn right on East Fork Road. After 5.2 miles, when the road makes a sharp bend to the right, continue straight ahead on Camp Bonita Prairie Forks Road, sticking with the river for an additional 3/4 of a mile to the trailhead parking area.

Trailhead address: Camp Bonita Road, San Gabriel Mountains National Monument, Azusa, CA 91702;
