Map + Directions
Basic Directions
Pass Lake Trailhead: 32 miles east of Kamas on the Mirror Lake Highway (U-150). Pass Lake is on the south side of the highway; the Weber River Trail begins on the north side. There are two spur trails leading to the main Weber River Trail. One begins at the north end of the guardrail across the highway west of Pass Lake. This trail is not signed but is easy to find and follow. .The second spur begins at the "Weber River Trail" sign. There is an undeveloped parking area here. The trail begins immediately north of the highway and runs parallel to it heading west. A small sign nailed to a tree reading "Weber River Trail" marks this route. .Holiday Park Trailhead: Located on Country Road #213 about 20 miles east of Oakley. This end of the trail is blocked by private land belonging to the Valley View Stake. After crossing the main fork of the Weber River on County Road 213, look for a steel gate with the letters "VVS" welded to it. This gate is usually locked, and hikers must find a parking spot along the county road and begin by walking up the dirt road that proceeds south from the gate. The road forks about 1/4 mile south from the gate. Bear to the right and follow a short spur road to its end where the hiking trail clearly begins. .
