The trail to Tower Bridge begins at Sunrise Point and heads northeast along the Fairyland Loop Trail. It is not a loop trail.

Tower Bridge Trail is considered a "moderate hike" due to the drop in elevation from the rim down to Tower Bridge site (950 ft/290 m). The 3 mile (4.8 km) hike takes about 2-3 hours to complete.

Once at Tower Bridge one has the option of returning to Sunrise Point or continuing on farther around the Fairyland Loop (8 miles / 12.8 km total).
