Places to go

Restaurants, parks, museums and more: places you can go most days, with no date to catch. Pick a category; the number on each is how many places it has with the choices you have made.

We can put the nearest ones first and tell you how far each one is. Nothing here is sorted by distance until you say where you are measuring from.

playground · Bluffdale

The best playground in the south valley and the one worth driving past closer ones for: a big climbing structure, a zip line, and a splash pad that runs roughly May to September. The lot fills by late morning on a hot Saturday, and there is almost no shade over the water, so go early or come back after four.

Newer and much bigger than a neighbourhood park, with a splash pad and shaded pavilions you can actually sit under. Quieter than Wardle Fields for the same kind of afternoon.
