Confirmed from Parley's Trail'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.
What runners say about Parley's Trail
Paved bike and walking path beside the S-Line Street Car. Well-lit and beautifully landscaped, it is safe for kids and connects Sugarhouse Park to South Salt Lake City (and eventually the Jordan River Parkway)
Top trail if you want to stay in shape going up is tough but it's all worth it when you go down
Love this trail very long runs along the s line and through sugar House through sugar House park and then continue all the way to parley canyon
