Jordan River Parkway

The Jordan River runs north-south through the center of the valley, just west and mostly parallel to Interstate 15. Salt Lake County is working with Salt Lake City and Murray City to develop a continous trailway from the Utah County line on the south to the Davis County line on the north. Substantial sections of the trail have been completed in recent years with grant monies and ZAP sales tax revenue. Remaining trail work will completed as funds become available.

Park benches and picnic tables can be found at shady and scenic spots along the trail.

The parkway trails wind through wetlands with cattails willows, foxes, and a variety of bird life. Over seven miles of trail are paved for pedestrians and bicycles. County maintained trails connect sections developed and maintained by Murray City and Salt Lake City.

  • Over seven miles of paved pedestrian and cycling paths from 2100 to 4800 South, 9800 to 11200 South, 12300 South to Bangerter Highway (13900 South) and 17000 South to the Utah County Line.
  • Trailheads with restrooms and parking areas at 1000 W 2320 South, 1050 West 3900 South and 600 West 4800 South
