The Bonneville Shoreline Trail runs along what was once the shoreline of an inland sea known as Lake Bonneville. The trail itself actually runs, intermittently, into southern Utah County, so the trail is easily accessible over a large area. The trail maintains a low-elevation, which helps keep sections of it open nearly year round. It is relatively flat and lacks any real technical challenges, which makes it a great option for a family ride. Also, most of the trail is ridden as an out-and-back, which leaves the exact distance you ride entirely up to you.

Located on South Temple between “G” & “H” Streets, the mansion was built as a residence for early mining executive Thomas Kearns and is now the official residence of Utah’s Governor. The Governor's Mansion is open for public tours.

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.

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.
