Sugar House Park is one of Salt Lake City's largest urban parks, spanning 110 acres in the city neighborhood of the same name. The park preserves the former grounds of the state's first prison facility, Sugar House Prison, which was closed in 1951. Today, its grounds are home to a variety of family-friendly attractions, including a 4.5-acre scenic pond that showcases beautiful fountains and water features. Two children's playgrounds provide safe play experiences for kids of all ages, while baseball, softball, and basketball courts can be used by daily parkgoers or community leagues. More than three miles of multi-use trails provide exercise opportunities for joggers and cyclists, including a scenic park loop path. Other amenities include sledding hills, day-use picnic sites, and 10 reservable group pavilions.
