The Lake Draper Trail offers a dynamic touring cycling experience around Lake Stanley Draper, characterized by its undulating paved asphalt surface and continuous lake views. You'll cycle through sections described as "tunnels of trees and grasses," providing a peaceful escape, and encounter unique public art installations along the way. Despite being paved, the route's 518 feet (158 metres) of elevation gain over 14.0 miles (22.6 km) means it's a moderate challenge that will keep you engaged for its estimated 1 hour and 20 minutes duration. It's a great choice for cyclists seeking a scenic workout with varied terrain.
Planning your visit to the Lake Draper Trail is straightforward, but remember that a permit is required for trail use; these can be purchased at the Draper Marina. The marina is also a convenient spot to start your ride, offering ample parking. If you're bringing your canine companion, they are welcome on the trail as long as they remain on a leash.
What sets the Lake Draper Trail apart is its dual nature: while the main paved loop provides an excellent touring cycling route, the broader Lake Stanley Draper trail system also includes extensive mountain biking loops. These range from easier "Green" sections to the challenging "Red" loop, featuring singletrack and even a distinct "Red Rock Hill" section. This makes the area a versatile destination for different cycling preferences, all while enjoying the continuous backdrop of the lake.
