Hands down one of the finest chef-driven restaurants in the state. Owned and operated by wife and husband duo Angie and Drew Fuller, the restaurant has some of the most creative dishes in town - confit chicken pot pie anyone? Oh, and that name… that mountain range you can see to the southwest of the city - those are the “Oak-uhhrrss.”

A steep, less-trafficked hike that makes for a great workout with an expansive view as a payoff at the end.

The Parley's Canyon Overlook Trailhead is relatively new, and many of the branching trails that start here are also new. The overlook is a minor peak that takes in views of the Salt Lake Valley to the west and Parley's Canyon to the east and south, and it can be reached by multiple routes. There are two main ridgeline routes and a third that follows a ravine between the other two, and many smaller trails, tracks, and deer paths that head up and around the mountain. The best track is to follow straight up one of the ridges. Short and steep, this is a good way to get the heart pumping. With a little more distance, can be combined with the Jack's Peak Trail for a 5 mile loop.

**Local's Recommendation:**This trail is quite steep and there is little shade cover, so this is best in spring or fall. Can be hiked in the winter with proper weather gear.

**Details**

**Difficulty:** Difficult - steep sections with technical hiking to follow trails

**Highest point:** 6289 ft

**Lowest point:** 5157 ft

**Best time of year:** Spring, Summer, Fall. Winter needs proper gear.

**Safety information:** As with any trail in the foothills, watch for rattlesnakes, especially in summer months. Wear appropriate footwear when hiking, be aware of your surroundings, and always look carefully before placing hands or feet. Be sure to stay hydrated.

**Roadbook**

Starting at the trailhead, follow the trail northeast from the parking area immediately follow the bend that turns right and up a small hill. At the top of the hill, turn left heading up the ridgeline. Follow the ridgeline to the peak overlooking the valley and the canyon.

Parley's Canyon Overlook Trail

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.

A short loop trail hike that, while not terribly difficult, has trail sections that will get your heart pumping and your legs burning.

A pretty hike with some spectacular views, this trail will take you to a pointy peak that is named after Jack Edwards, a young toddler who passed away from leukemia in 1995. His parents created a memorial at the top with mailboxes containing notebooks for visitors to write in, and the peak is also known as Jack's Mountain or Jack's Mailbox Peak. The hike is short and pretty consistently steep in places, with very little to no shade. The views are worth every step.

**Local's recommendation:** Probably best hiked in spring or fall. Summer is good, but recommended to go early in the morning or late in the afternoon to avoid the hottest temperatures of the day, as there is very little shade.

**Details**

**Difficulty:** Moderate due to steep sections

**Highest point:** 6260 ft

**Lowest point:** 5164 ft

**Best time of year:** Spring and Fall, if going in Summer start early to avoid the heat since there is no shade

**Safety information:** 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. This is a steep trail, so a walking pole can be helpful.

**Roadbook**

From the trailhead, get on to the Bonneville Shoreline Trail and head northwest. When the trail rounds the hill and heads more north, a smaller off shoot will appear on the right and head upwards toward the "H" rock on the mountain. From there, follow the trail to the top.

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.
