Parleys Way Park

Parley's Way Park is a public green space located in Salt Lake City, Utah. The park provides a recreational area for local residents and visitors, offering a mix of natural and developed spaces.

The park features trails suitable for walking and light hiking, making it an attractive destination for those seeking outdoor exercise or a peaceful stroll. These paths are particularly well-suited for families with children, offering an accessible way to enjoy nature within the city limits.

One of the park's notable features is its participation in the Native Plant Program, with a specific focus on monarchs and milkweed. This initiative aims to support monarch butterfly populations, which have been declining in recent decades due to factors such as development and climate change. The park's efforts to cultivate milkweed plants provide essential habitat for monarchs, contributing to broader conservation efforts for this species that is currently under federal protection.

Parley's Way Park is managed by the Salt Lake City Public Lands Department, which oversees its maintenance and development. The park is open daily, typically from early morning until evening, allowing visitors to enjoy its amenities throughout the day.
