Summary: The Bonneville Shoreline Trail (BSLT) is a hiking and bicycle path running across the foothills of the Wasatch Range along a route that follows the eastern shoreline of ancient Lake Bonneville. My report refers to the South Davis County sections, East of Farmington, Centerville and Bountiful. Since there are multiple access points and its proximity to the local community the BSLT is a heavily used trail by joggers hikers and mountain bikers. The trail runs along the 5200 feet level usually just above the homes and farms of these three small communities The BSLT is perfect for an evening hike or a early morning walk or bike ride. Few people walk the trail from end to end most prefer a mile or two out and back. While on the trail you will enjoy deer and birds and the peaceful sounds of the many creeks that cross the trail The views are beautiful with the Great Salt lake and Antelope Island to the West, the sunsets are incredible Trailhead: There are several places to access this portion of the Bonneville Shoreline Trail. From the South at the end of Northridge drive North of the Bountiful B. At the end of Parrish lane in Centerville. Off of East 1826 Rd. North in Centerville.

Reviewed by P.J on 10/28/2006 Very nice hike, could be better, if some people would not shoot at empty bottles, ( we were hiking down when we found some people shooting on the side of the parking....it's was disturbing....).
Reviewed by mm on 9/10/2005 Only a few years ago this was a wonderful area to hike. However, it has become so popular with bikers it is no longer as fun, peaceful, and "safe" as it once was.
