We have not been able to confirm the surface, distance or shape of Porter Rockwell Trail - Osborne Trailhead 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.

“The trail is paved and has some little hills and some elevation gain, but is great for running, walking with kids, taking the dog for a walk, or riding bikes around.”

One of my very favorite and most often used trails in Draper. It goes all the way to Draper City Park and it has a great mix of mountain and valley views. The trail is paved and has some little hills and some elevation gain, but is great for running, walking with kids, taking the dog for a walk, or riding bikes around.

★★★★★ — Eliot , Oct 2019

Love this trail for dog walking, running, biking, etc. there’s plenty of parking at the trailhead. Can make the trail really as long or as short as you want. There’s plenty of places to be dropped off or picked up if you’re not wanting to go out and back.

★★★★★ — Mikaela , Jun 2026

One of my favorite trails! Smooth, clean, with decent hills. Beautiful and fun.

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.
