Since the park's formation in 1950s, Sugar House Park has been the crown jewel of the historic Sugar House area of Salt Lake City. The 110-acre park features several amenities as well as a large pond, hilly areas ideal for sledding, access to Parley's Trail, and a 1.38-mile road with a 16-foot inside lane for pedestrians.
