Review:
Located along the famous 19th century route used to transport letters, messages, and other communication from Missouri to California, the Salt Lake City stop was an essential location for the Pony Express. Crossing through eight states, the historic Pony Express National Historic Trail is still marked to this day, and modern travelers can follow the path with the advantage of interpretive signs, visitor centers, and historic museums guiding the way.
To experience Salt Lake City’s involvement with the Pony Express, visit the National Park Services visitor center in town to pick up literature, maps, and suggestions to help you select a route to follow or stops along the trail to visit.
