Permit Us To "Ramble On" About Our Trail Project

The Park City Sunrise Rotary Club partnered with several organizations to assist the Mountain Trails Foundation in designing and construction a new beginner/intermediate single-track trail in the Park City Municipal managed Round Valley Open Space.  Called the “Ramble On Trail” this beautiful Rotary project is located near the new hospital, playing fields, Park City Ice Rink and the National Ability Center at Quinns Junction at the crossroads of Hwy. 450 and State Road 24. 

This trail connects the existing “Rusty Shovel” and the “Rambler Connector” trails on the Highway 40 side of Round Valley.  The scope of the project included the design, layout and construction of a 2-mile trail alignment ensuring sustainable trail-building techniques were incorporated throughout the process.  The trail is used by bikers and hikers during the summer months and those who love snowshoeing and cross country skiing in the wintertime.

Mountain Trails Foundation provided all of the equipment, crew and materials necessary to complete the project.  Park City Sunrise Rotary Club members and Interact students will be working on the trail this fall to finalize completion of the project.  Our club will be responsible for yearly maintenance of the trail and will be dedicated to our Rotary Club.
