Parley's Historic Nature Park is an easy, family-friendly walk that is started as an off-leash dog park, but is also a beautiful walk with or without canine friends.

Unlike other dog parks that are often small fields or open areas fenced off and dedicated to letting dogs run around, Parley's Historic Nature Park (also referred to as Tanner Dog Park) is an 87-acre park that is also a wildlife refuge area containing numerous historic sites and plaques. It has multiple trails, and it joins with Parley's Trail for a much longer walking or hiking experience. It follows Parley's Creek and is full of trees and brush, and has beautiful views of the nearby mountains and the bottom of Parley's Canyon.

**Local's recommendation:** This is a popular area any time of year-bring your dog if you can, but if you can't or don't own a dog, you will meet many friendly pups on this walk.

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.
