Trail Description

The Adams Canyon Trail is a 2 mile hike, bike, horseback ride, or backcountry ski trail. This trail is maintained as a primitive route once it crosses the Bonneville Shoreline Trail and climbs to a scenic cascade or falls. Beyond the falls, the trail is difficult to follow. You will travel through a series of cliff areas as it meanders to the ridge and intersects with the Great Western Trail.

Dogs are allowed in the Farmington-Bountiful Area but must be kept on a leash at all trail heads and developed sites including the parking areas.

Directions: From Salt Lake City, Travel north on Highway 89 and take the first right past Oakhills Road (Layton City Water Tank). Take another right (south) on the frontage road. Park at the end of pavement at fenced off reservoir. Trail starts on north side of the reservoir. This trail has good access to the Bonneville Shoreline Trail.
