We rode this Oct 1st. We stayed at Lakeside RV Campground and were able to ride right out of the CG to the trail. The first 2-3 miles are so beautiful by the river and with a huge tree canopy. There are some pesky tree roots that have gone under the trail pavement making bumps. We just try to ignore the inconvenience. There’s a closure that’s shown on the map but an easy to follow diversion to get around and back on the trail. Then it goes thru some parks and underpasses and behind some nice houses.
Fall 2024, this nicely completed trail meanders behind the backyards of north-east Utah Valley. Bridges, tunnels and simple road crossings dot the trail with beautiful mountain & valley views.
The path was smooth and had recently been re-paved which made the ride smooth and consistent. There is a small parking lot at the beginning of the trail which we realized after we did the ride.
48 great miles of various riding terrane and features. Many parks along the path more concentrated in the city.
I would say that the section between General Holm Park and N Temple is a bit sketchy in spots but I never really felt in any danger; only a bit disconcerted. I saw the police in those areas clearing out the people loitering and sleeping along the rail.
I've ridden this trail on numerous occasions. I have a lot to say about it. First, let me say that I'm speaking to bikers; the trail would be too much for walkers and joggers. I've tried starting on the Porter Rockwell trail at the Northern most point, but, after several tries, I've concluded that the best spot to start is at Draper Park. There's good parking, bathrooms and an easy to find starting-out point. From the Park, of course it is a shorter route, but DON'T stop at the end of Porter Rockwell! Just continue straight ahead. The trail takes on a different name, and shortly thereafter, it moves away from Rte I-15 and gives you an awesome view of the activity on top of Point of the Mountain. The trail then continues along new housing on your left, and expansive views on the right. But again, don't stop. The trail goes past a relatively new tech building, and then, when it says End of Trail, turn right, go down the hill (go slowly, it is pretty steep), and follow the path to a new bridge (for bikes, etc., but not for motor vehicles) that crosses the #92 highway, and connects with the Murdock Canal Trail (for those of you who'd like to do another 18 miles one-way). Try it, I guarantee you'll love it. One more thing; the path is paved all the way, and is in excellent condition.
Most of this trail is great and peaceful. The only real watchout is parts of the trail in Salt Lake City. There are many homeless encampments and groups of people doing drugs out in the open (especially around North Temple). This was May 2024. The trail directly south of Salt Lake can get confusing at times as the signage is not great. Other than that it's a great trail that follows the Jordan river.
Rode this trail from Utah Lake State Park up to Vivian Park and back. The first 10 miles are mostly in town even though you follow the river. The river make the ride cooler and more casual. The last 5 is moving through the canyon with the roadway nearby and can be loud. Mostly a gentle climb all the way to the turn around point. Of the first 10 miles about 6 of those miles are the roughest paved trail I have ever been on. Hopefully with all the 2024 construction that will improve. Mostly a downhill ride coming back. Be careful since there is a lot of foot traffic and several underpasses that are single lane only. Some of the in town sections near BYU are very narrow. Be patient.
Great little walk, a part of the riverton side was flooded but we just walked the other side instead. Very nice.
Completed this trail, nice gentle slopes and well maintained.
One of the nicest paved bike trails I have seen. As wide as a lane on a road.
Parley’s trail begins within the intersection of Interstates 80 and 215 BeltLoop as it T’s off the the Bonneville Shoreline Trail. It quickly drops down into Parley’s Nature Preserve - which is the only real piece of nature you’ll encounter along this Uber Urban trail. From there you’ll closely follow interstate 80 into Sugarhouse Park then after winding through Sugarhouse business district the trail becomes aligned with the UTA S-Line light rail east to South Salt Lake. From here the trail meanders with often poor signage along city streets until it joins year another UTA light rail line (Green Line) as it crosses rail yards, interstate exchanges and finally meets its end as it T’a into the Jordan River Trail.
