Easy walking routes

Lakeside loop

Head toward Oquirrh Lake and follow the shoreline paths. Because the views change with every turn, the minutes fly by.

Try this: Walk 10 minutes out; then turn around. Add two minutes each day.

Neighborhood connectors

Link pocket parks using sidewalks and paved paths. Choose a landmark—like a bridge or playground—as your halfway point.

SoDa Row stroll

Start near SoDa Row, stroll past shops and art, and finish with a take‑home treat.

Bike‑friendly ideas

Quick 20‑minute spin

Hop on a cruiser and loop the nearest greenways. Keep an easy pace; focus on fresh air.

Errand by bike

Swap one short car trip each day for a bike ride. You’ll rack up miles without carving out extra time.

Pick a path you haven’t tried from our Bikeable Neighborhood guide and see where it leads.

Park circuits & play

Turn any park into a mini‑workout. Rotate through 5 moves for 30 seconds each; rest; then repeat 3–5 times.

  • Bench step‑ups
  • Squats
  • Push‑ups (bench or ground)
  • Walking lunges
  • Plank (grass or mat)

Mix it up: Add a short jog or brisk walk between stations to keep your heart rate up.

Family games on the go

  • Nature bingo: Spot ducks, bridges, bikes, and blossoms.
  • Interval treasure hunt: Hide notes along a route and jog between clues.
  • Countdown walk: Start at ten light poles away and count down to home.

At‑home add‑ons

On busy days, stack a few 5‑minute bouts: 20 jumping jacks + 15 squats + a 30‑second plank. Repeat three times between meetings.

Trail etiquette & safety

  • Yield to pedestrians; slow down near families and dogs.
  • Bring water and a light after dusk.
  • Wave hello—you’ll make someone’s day.
