The Mueller Park Trail offers a great change in pace from most of the mountain bike rides in the Salt Lake City area. It’s low elevation keeps it open late season, but the thick tree cover keeps it cool during the summer. The trail is not technical or challenging, which makes it a great trail for the family. Although there is parking at the trailhead itself, it’s limited enough that you may want to park on the street at the entrance to the park. From there it’s a quick pedal until you see the trailhead on a bridge over the stream. Soon you’ll be climbing through deep pines that lead into an abundance of plant life that is rarely seen in this area. The trail drops deep into draws that are full of poplar, cottonwoods, aspens, ferns, and undergrowth. Then it winds through pines, cuts through scrub oak, and swings you out and across the grass covered ridges, only to repeat the process over and over again.

Mueller Park Trail Mountain Bike Ride to Big Rock

Four separate tracks, with tabletops and banked turns, are open from approximately early April to approximately mid-October. Off-Highway motorcycle (OHM) riders will enjoy two motocross (MX) tracks. The novice and grand-prix tracks are open to both OHMs and ATVs. All riders must wear a helmet and all machines must be currently registered. Before riding here, or on any public land, youth from 8-16 years old (and until they get a driver license) must take and pass the state-required youth off-highway vehicle (OHV) education program; children under the age of eight may not operate an OHV on public land in Utah. Youth must carry their safety certificate while riding.

Salt Lake Regional Athletic Complex

This short hike is easily accessible from Salt Lake City downtown and is a nice excursion for the whole family. It´s a perfect way to view the city and the lake.

The first ascent of Ensign Peak was made on July 26, 1847 by Brigham Young shortly after he and the early members of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (Mormon Church) arrived in the valley. From here he looked out over the valley and sketched the city to be founded in his mind's eye. The mountain is easy to climb and this is the easiest trail. It starts at the Ensign Vista Drive and then takes 25 minutes of walking to the top.

The path is easily recognizable and well maintained. This entire hike is short, family-friendly, and packed with gorgeous views of downtown, the surrounding mountains, the Great Salt Lake, and the full Salt Lake valley. It is a little steep in parts and will get your heart racing, but it also has many places along the trail to sit, rest, and take in the remarkable views. In addition to the stunning view, the top of Ensign Peak has an 18-foot tall historic stone marker and several informational plaques.

**Author’s recommendation**  
Beautiful as an early morning or evening hike to take in sunrise or sunset.

Ensign Peak

The hike to Bell Canyon is perfect for anyone wanting to experience both city and mountain views. This short and easy hike is great for people of all ages and abilities.

This popular trail is located near Sandy, UT and features a beautiful lake that sits at the base of Little Cottonwood Canyon. From the trailhead, you'll initially follow a dirt path that leads you directly to the Bell Canyon Reservoir. The trail is well maintained, easily marked, but can get slightly steep in some areas.

The reservoir sits about half a mile from the trailhead. This is a great spot to take a break and enjoy the beautiful views of the lake and the mountains surrounding. The best part is, you can make this hike as easy or as difficult as you want. Whether you decide to make your way up to the waterfall, turn around here, or hike around the lake, there are stunning views and beautiful scenery at any point. It's easy to make a quick loop around the lake and head back down the same way you came, enjoying magestic views of the Salt Lake Valley on the way back.

**Local's recommendation:** Be sure to bring a snack for a little picnic along the beautiful lake, or a fishing rod for some catch-and-release fun!

Rose Park Golf Course

A great hike that can either be an out-and-back to the peak, or can turn into a longer hike as you explore the system of trails around the Bonneville Shoreline in the Avenues area.

This is an easy to moderate well-trafficked route that has two minor peaks as the destination. It's a fun area to explore, with lots of trails going in many directions, with small valleys and multiple viewpoints. A great way to check out the trail system in this area, with many options to try, and for variety, multiple trailheads that lead to this destination. Dogs are welcome, but technically should be leashed.

**Insider's tip:** There is very little to no shade, so be prepared with a hat and plenty of water, and while it's a decent year-round hike, it's probably best in the spring or fall.

**Safety information:** Many of the trails here are multiple use, so watch for mountain bikes - and be sure to respect the rules if a trail is marked for mountain bikes only. As with any trail in the foothills, watch for rattlesnakes, especially in summer months. Wear closed-toed shoes when hiking, be aware of your surroundings, and always look carefully before placing hands or feet. Be sure to bring plenty of water. There are steep areas on the trail, so a walking pole can be helpful.

**Directions:** There are two trailheads on Terrace Hills drive - take the one on the northeast side of the street. In the first mile there are a few criss-crossing trails - take the most northeasterly branches. When the trail hits the top of the ridge, it will turn east, and you'll be able to see the peaks from there. Follow the trail up to the peaks. From there, you can follow the trail back down the way you came for an out-and-back, or you can explore the trail system for a loop hike.

**Public transport:** Bus routes do not travel up to this trailhead - best access is by car.

**Parking** Parking is available for free near the trailhead - be aware of the no parking areas.

Avenues Twin Peaks

A moderately difficult trail that is family- and dog-friendly, features a nearby river, and has both a natural trail and a paved trail that parallel each other.

A quick and easy way to get out of the city and into the mountains, City Creek Canyon Trail is the closest canyon hike to downtown and is easy to access by foot or by car. The paved part of the trail is a road open to pedestrians, bicycles on odd-numbered days, and motor vehicles on even-numbered days. The natural trail is restricted to only hikers. It is an easy trail - it is only rated moderate due to the gain in elevation. There are also many other trails that split off from this trail, mostly at the trailhead.

**Local's recommendation:** Be sure to follow the multiple use guidelines posted at the gate. This is a good year-round walk, but can be slippery on the road in colder months.

**Difficulty:** Moderate due to elevation gain

**Highest point:** 5262 ft

**Lowest point:** 4652 ft

**Best time of year:** Year round

**Safety information:** If you're walking the paved section, be sure to always stay on the creek side of the road to avoid bicycle traffic, always leash your dog, and don't bring pets past the 2.5 mile marker. All the guidelines to stay safe while sharing the road are posted at the gate 3/10ths of a mile past the trailhead.

**Roadbook**

The paved section is easy enough to follow. To get on the natural trail, multiple access points exist along the road, but the first one is at the junction of City Creek Canyon Road and Bonneville Boulevard where you can park your car. A trail heads up the hill to the west right behind the City Creek Canyon sign, and the first trail turning off and going north, parallel to the City Creek Canyon Road, will take you up the canyon.

- Start point - City Creek Canyon Rd, Salt Lake City, UT 84103 - 0 mi
- Highest point, 5262 ft - 3.3 mi
- Lowest point, 4649 ft - 6.4 mi
- 3 mile marker - Destination - 6.5 mi

**How to Get There**

**Public transport:** Bus routes do not travel up to this trailhead - best access is by car.

Visit Salt Lake

Salt Lake is the place where the Wasatch mountain peaks frame city streets. Sure, Salt Lake's famed for our winter powder ([four legendary ski resorts](https://www.visitsaltlake.com/things-to-do/skiing-snowboarding/) just 30 minutes from downtown), but that's just one season's story. Summer brings families [hiking through wildflower meadows](https://www.visitsaltlake.com/things-to-do/outdoor-recreation/) before cooling off at a Jazz game or the Gateway fountains. Autumn paints our mountain canyons in gold, perfect for morning strolls that end at local coffee shops. Spring? That's when you might spot baby bison on Antelope Island before heading to the Eccles Theater for a Broadway show. Our soaring Wasatch Mountains rise dramatically from downtown Salt Lake, creating a place where every day offers both natural wonders and urban energy. And while we sit perfectly between the [national parks](https://www.visitsaltlake.com/things-to-do/outdoor-recreation/state-national-parks/) with Yellowstone's geysers and Utah's red rock country, the real magic happens right here, where everyone can [discover the history](https://www.visitsaltlake.com/plan-your-visit/about-salt-lake/) of the city as they find their own rhythm between mountain adventure and city life.
