We have not been able to confirm the surface, distance or shape of Jordan River Trail - south jordan yet from its own listing, the park's website or runner reviews — so those cells stay blank rather than guess. What is below comes straight from the listing and from reviewers' own words. 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.

“Lovely walk on JR Parkway on a beautiful Spring day from Thanksgiving Point trailhead up to Jordan Narrows overlook of the diversion dam and Frontrunner trains below.”

Lovely walk on JR Parkway on a beautiful Spring day from Thanksgiving Point trailhead up to Jordan Narrows overlook of the diversion dam and Frontrunner trains below. Good views of Oquirrhs, Lone Peak, Timpanogos, etc., lots of bikers, too, all courteous and respectful of us slower folks. Recommended!

Fun trail along the Jordan River. Good for walking, running, biking, etc.

★★★★★ — David , Aug 2021

I found the same experience, the trail has cracks across it at about 20 ft apart. I ride a tadpole trike with full suspension and it was so uncomfortable I had to stop. If I were riding my carbon fiber trike, I would probably break it in pieces. Would be a nice ride, otherwise.

★★★★☆ — Wayne , Jun 2022

Went to visit my brother and he showed me this place. Every morning for a week I ran here every morning and it is beautiful! Sometimes when I run back at home I imagine in here!

Trail conditions & character

What this trail is actually like underfoot and overhead, taken from its own listing and from reviews. Each one links to every other trail with the same character. Busy or quiet is reported as a plain fact, not a plus or a minus — a runner heading out alone at dawn often wants company on the path, and someone running intervals wants an empty one.
