Best Utah Valley Bike Trails

Utah County is a beautiful place in the spring and summer. A family bike ride is one of the best ways to get outside and enjoy nature. We compiled a list of the 5 best family bike trails in Utah County. Take a look and let us know what you think!

The Best Utah County Family Bike Trails

Provo River Parkway Trail

The Provo River Parkway trail is a popular choice for families and college students in Provo. It is 15 miles long and passes by the beautiful Bridal Veil Falls. There are picnic areas along the trail where you can stop and eat with your family.

Murdock Canal Trail

The Murdock Canal Trail is a great new trail that runs from Lehi to Orem. There are access points in other cities, as well. These include Lindon, Pleasant Grove, and Highland. This is one of our favorite family bike trails.

Skipper Bay Trail

This trail stretches for about 2 miles around Utah Lake in Provo. It is a great ride for kids, who can see the many different plants and animals that live around the lake. Bikes and pets are allowed.

Hobble Creek Parkway Trail

Hobble Creek Parkway is a 4.5-mile trail in Springville, Utah. This is a very scenic ride, especially during the spring. You and your family will ride past trees and water while enjoying a relatively easy ride.

Carterville Road Trail

The Carterville Road trail runs along the border of Provo and Orem. Its suburban location makes for an easy, quick family ride. The trail starts behind the Ancestry.com office building.

These are only some of the great family bike trails in Utah County. We love getting out on our bikes with our families, and we hope to see you on the trail!

Summer Movie Programs + Sensory-Friendly Showings 2016

One of the best ways to beat the heat during the summer is to pay for tickets for a summer movie program for you and the kids. Most screenings are in the morning/afternoon and are at various movie theaters. You pay one price per person for the entire summer. If multiple days are offered of the program movie showings, you may choose one day to use your pass. In our experience, we have not had a problem finding seats for our group and love seeing the movie for a dollar or less a piece. In most cases, if you do not have a pass, you may also show up on the day of the movie and pay $1 per person to watch the movie.

Click the links or images below to find the theater and the options available.
