My son and I had a late night adventure just recently hiking up to Ensign Peak. It was after hours but it didn’t seem to be a big deal at all. Plus it was my 13 year olds first time ever hiking it.

Ok playground. Missing swings right now and there are only two. There is a baseball diamond up higher and a volleyball pit. Two nice tennis courts. Nice views of Salt Lake. But overall just ok.

Lots of snow with cleared sidewalks. Deer just hanging out. Dogs chasing after each other, while their moms and dads talking to each other. It is a peaceful good place.

  • Anna Lawrence

It was so beautiful once you got to the top. Not a long hike, but a steep one. With little to no shade you would want to do it early or later but it is worth the view.

Nice views,play area and 2 tennis courts. Usually not crowded. Steep elevation makes it difficult for running and air can be colder during non summer months
