The Jordan River Parkway is a 46-mile recreational spine offering an incredible array of activities, proving there truly is something for everyone, regardless of skill or interest. While you may already enjoy the trail for a casual walk or run, consider venturing beyond your routine to experience the corridor in a completely new way.
Picture yourself paddling a kayak down the scenic water trail, viewing over 250 species of birds and animals, or hitting a golf ball at one of the eight golf courses bordering the river. The flat, paved path is perfect for cycling, skating, and boarding, and designated soft paths invite horseback riding and nature viewing. Whether you are looking for a vigorous workout, a peaceful nature retreat, a family campout, or a unique artistic inspiration at the “magic hour,” the Parkway is your all-access pass to adventure right here in the heart of our valley.
