Overview

This is a great off-road trail if you're looking to get away from the crowds of Salt Lake City. It is a short drive from the Wasatch Front and far less popular than 5 Mile Recreation Area just north of here. With it being less known, you will likely be alone all day with the possibility of an occasional vehicle rolling by. The scenery in the Tintic Mountains is unique to the West Desert of Utah. Although you may not find any challenges here, it will be a nice and peaceful getaway.
