Description:
The Denver and Rio Grande Western Rail Trail extends from Farmington Bay Bird Refuge, where it joins the Legacy Parkway Trail (coming soon to www.TrailLink.com), and runs north through Layton, Clearfield, and Clinton to Hinckley Drive (3600 S) north of Roy. In Clearfield there is a detour around a railroad crossing, which isn't marked but is easy to figure out. From the Legacy Parkway Trail, you can pick up the Jordan River Parkway Trail.

The abandoned right-of-way is owned by the Utah Transit Authority in a land bank for future transportation needs. The various cities it links have agreements with the light- and commuter-rail agency to maintain the trail.

D&RG trail in Roy
By rookie7 in October, 2011
Roy City has almost completed their portion of the trail, with only some crossing painting remaining. The trail ends at Hinckley dr. on the north and is a welcome addition to the rails to trails system.
