TRAILS
The Weber River Parkway Trail in Riverdale City consists of three miles of paved trail for walking, running, biking, roller blades, wheel chairs and strollers. The trail runs along the Weber River from the north end to the south end of the city. It is part of the Centennial Trail system. On the north end the trail ties into the Ogden River Parkway paved trail. This section of trail includes underpasses at 31st Street and the railroad tracks. Residents can now enjoy a ten mile continuous trail from the south end of Riverdale to the mouth of Ogden Canyon. On the south end it ties into the South Weber gravel section of the Weber River Parkway.
There are three trail head parking lots in Riverdale City. They are located just south of the Civic Center, off of 600 West and at the north end of the trail off Parker Drive. Each trailhead has a bathroom as well.
There is also a short fisherman's access trail that starts near 1050 West and River Park Drive and leads to the bank of the Weber River.

TRAIL ENFORCEMENT
The Riverdale trail system has become a very popular place to visit, walk, ride, and jog. Because it is so popular it has become necessary to beef up enforcement of city rules and ordinances concerning the trail system so that all can enjoy it. The patrons of the trail system have experienced less than desirable conditions such as dog droppings, dogs off leashes going after walkers and joggers, and bicyclists traveling too fast. The city has received numerous complaints regarding these problems.
In response to these problems our Animal Control Officer will spend more time on the trail and will exercise zero tolerance for those not conforming to the rules of the trail. She will issue citations for any unleashed dogs on the trail. We will also be sending police officers multiple times each day to watch for offenders with a zero tolerance stance. We hope that by enforcing these laws residents will feel safer and enjoy their experiences on the trail.
RIVERDALE OUTDOOR FITNESS PARK
Along the Weber River Parkway trail, just south of the 600 West trailhead parking lot, is the Riverdale Outdoor Fitness Park. Various exercises can be performed at each station along the trail. This is a good way to get your exercise in a great outdoor setting.
