SaveSometimes referred to as Coyote or Riverview trails, there is a wide variety of riding available. Mostly buff singletrack with small rocky sections. The west side, the UVU area, is sagebrush and gamble oak. The east side, the Wile E area, is more aspen and maple forest. Thirty five miles of new single track have been added in the last 5 years including more downhill oriented trails and skills courses. The Tiger Woods Golf Course is being added at the top of the mountain and many thousands of homes have been okayed by the city. Things are changing up there every day. The old Coyote Loop is no longer there. But with 65 miles of trails you can find many different ways to get in those long miles.
There are three trail heads to access these trails: UVU, Riverview and Wile E. Canyon and in the future there will be more. These trails will be there for the public even after they add all the house.
