Ogden Canyon

Ogden Canyon has a rich history as a recreational retreat for residents of Ogden. The original canyon, especially at the mouth near Ogden, was almost too narrow for passage, but was widened in the late 1800 to allow for what is now State Highway 39, a narrow two lane thoroughfare past steep cliffs and tall peaks. Homes in Ogden Canyon are clustered in the widest portions of the five-mile chasm in the Wasatch mountain range. Home buyers will never lack amazing views from all angles, which is constantly reinventing itself as the sun passes overhead, and as the seasons open up new canvas for Mother Nature to adorn. There's quite a variety of home designs from log cabins and stone chalets, to Victorian and mid century styles. Many homes are river front with towering rock cliffs in their backdrop, making this a rare and coveted area for those who enjoy the mountains. Ogden Canyon offers tranquility at a whole new level, with it's homes cradled by the elements of nature. In the summer, adventurists flock to the area for easy access to innumerable hiking and mountain biking trails, fly fishing in the Ogden River, boating at the nearby Pineview Reservoir, excellent golfing at Wolf Creek Golf Course, and majestic mountain views. Access to the trails in the heart of the canyon can be found at what locals refer to as "the Smokey Bear sign." Here you can explore Cold Water Canyon or take the Indian Trail which will eventually connect to the Bonneville Shoreline Trail or Hidden Valley Trail. In the winter, ski and snowboard junkies searching for amazing powder head to one of three winter resorts, Wolf MountainPowder Mountain and Snowbasin Resort. There is also snowmobiling access further east at Monte Cristo and ice fishing at Pineview Reservoir.
