Utah’s hiking and biking trails are great when you want to get some fresh air, but not all of them are suitable for everyone. Some are steep and rocky, and not accessible to those with small children or mobility challenges. There’s a pretty trail in Layton that’s perfect for everyone – it’s paved, easy to navigate and absolutely beautiful. Take a look at the Kays Creek Parkway Trail:

The Kays Creek Parkway is a pretty, 2.8-mile-long trail in Layton. There are five different spots along the trail for access, but the Adam J. Welker trailhead is the main entry point, and it features a large parking lot with plenty of spaces.

The parkway trail winds through Hobbs Canyon, taking you through a pretty, wooded, 100-acre park. It's the perfect place for a morning or evening stroll.

Most of the trail is shaded, but there are a few spots that are sun-exposed, so if you're hiking in the middle of the day make sure to wear sunscreen and a hat, and bring some water along.

The trail is paved and most of it is suitable for strollers and wheelchairs. The upper part of the trail gets a little more steep and can be a bit of a workout if you're pushing a stroller.
