The Bonneville Shoreline Trail (BST) will one day stretch from the Idaho border to Nephi, more than 280 miles. Currently just over 100 miles of the route is officially designated as part of the BST. This website is a guide to the entire 280 mile proposed route. The route attempts to follow the bonneville bench that was formed by the ancient lake. The route described here is not yet fully designated as the BST, the route may cross private property or other obstacles, please be aware of signs, fences and unmarked obstacles. This trail is a work in progress.

The trail is mainly dirt/natural. There is parking at the Jewish Community Center (JCC) parking lot (opposite the entrance to the University Medical Center). The JCC has graciously provided off-street parking in the east end of the JCC parking lot. Please limit your parking to the east end of the lot and don't abuse the privilege of this off-street parking. From the east end of the JCC parking lot, walk through a narrow gate at the north end of the power station, and proceed about 200 yards northeast past the power station and along the old service road to its U-turn at the mouth of Dry Canyon. At the U-turn a brown carsonite post with the BST logo marks the start of this segment of the BST.
