Confirmed from Jordan River Parkway Trailhead Entrance's own listing, the park or land manager's website, and runner reviews. Blank cells mean we could not verify that fact — we would rather say "not reported" than invent one. There is no Easy / Moderate / Hard rating on this page on purpose: a one-word difficulty score tells you nothing about whether a trail suits your run. Surface, distance, shade and hours do.
Park featuring trails for walking, biking, and exploring with the family.
What runners say about Jordan River Parkway Trailhead Entrance
“It is so wonderful to have a safe place to walk, jog, and bike in the beautiful Utah outdoors!”
“The JRT is perfect for running, biking, skating, etc.”
“Its nicer up top from like 90th south to 13400th south and down from about 2100so to north temple is alot more shade trees feel too.”
Just a beautiful place to bike/walk through and unwind. Plus, if you take a camera, you’ll have plenty of subjects to photograph. Especially Ducks and Robins. I went there a couple of days ago, after the snow has melted considerably so I could use my bike, and I don’t regret whatsoever.
Great trail for running, walking, biking. Just watch out for the occasional flying golf ball at the beginning of this entrance.
This place is gorgeous. Good for riding bikes, running or walking. So peaceful and the views are spectacular.
Beautiful trail along the river. Great place for the egg/treasure hunt today!
