Dimple Dell Trail is a 5.3 mile moderately trafficked out and back trail located near Sandy, Utah and is good for all skill levels. The trail is primarily used for hiking, trail running, horses, and mountain biking and is accessible year-round. Dogs are also able to use this trail but must be kept on leash.

Trail is paved with bark the whole way. I am NOT a fan of the bark. The path is more of a walk than a hike. No elevation gain to speak of, so it's like walking around the neighborhood, except you might see some wild animals along the way. NO snakes today. Yay Trail is parallel to homes, and a lot of the homes had a sign on their fence saying "Don't Pave Dimple Dell." I totally agree. Let's keep nature like it is intended. I totally agree. **Bathrooms available ***Dog owners pick up your dog poop and put it in the trash don't leave it for someone else to clean after your dog!
The views of the Wasatch are a nice perk but I dislike this trail system A LOT. 1. There is no shade. 2. The trail is made of wood chips. I set out to do a trail run but only went in a mile and turned around. If you want to run here, I suggest a light weight pair of gaiters to keep the wood chips out of your shoes. It runs along the back of a neighborhood. Nice part of town. If it had a few more trees and a different make up (like gravel), I would like it much more. Watch out for the horses and their poop. Did on a Sunday morning. Saw a bout 10 people on foot and 6 or 7 on horse back. 6-24-18
