GENEVA ROAD TO VIVIAN PARK
DESCRIPTION: One of the best paved parkway trails in the state of Utah. This energetic ride is more fun than going to Lagoon. You'll ride over wooden bridges, glide under a canopy of golden leaves, and coast under narrow tunnels beneath major roads. At Bridal Veil Falls, you'll have to get off your bike and walk it for several hundred feet...it is a pedestrian zone.
At Vivian Park, if you are lucky, you can see the Heber Creeper. You can ride this old train all the way from Heber to the park and back.
When you return to the Geneva parking, ride your bicycle down toward Provo Lake and take the Skipper Bay Parkway, near Utah Lake.
