Description
On Saturday, June 1, 2002, the non-profit Weber Pathways officially opened the Little Mountain Rail Trail (also known as the Weber Pathways Rail Trail) as part of the National Trails Day Celebration. This 10-mile trail, comprising 233 acres, preserves wildlife habitat and provides a public recreational trail for equestrian, mountain biking and pedestrian use. This rails-to-trails project, only the second of its kind in Utah, was accomplished through the partnership of several private, non-profit and public agencies.
For more information on this and other trails in Ogden and Weber County, please see the Trail Websites. The first site is for the non-profit group Weber Pathways, while the second site is the Ogden/Weber Convention/Visitors Bureau. Trail information for Ogden and Weber County is available by clicking on Outdoor Adventure.
Parking and Trail Access
The easiest way to get to the trail is to go west on 12th Street, turn right on 6700 West, and go straight north over the paved and unpaved sections of 6700 West to the trailhead at 2700 North.
