Parleys Trail

Parleys Trail is a network of hiking and biking trails running along Parleys Creek in South Salt Lake City.

The trail connects with the Bonneville Shoreline Trail at the mouth of Parleys Canyon. A bridge crosses the freeway then drops into Parley's Hallow. The bike trail stays on the high shoulder of the gulch. The lower area is a popular dog walking area.

The ultimate goal is to create a continuous path from the canyon to the Jordan River Parkway. One has to take a number of alternate routes from Tanner Park to Sugarhouse Park.
