Other attractions include the Taylorsville-Bennion Heritage Center, the Mid-Valley Performing Arts Center, the Taylorsville Recreation Center, and a seasonal outdoor swimming pool. If you’re looking for a hotel in Taylorsville, these themes can help you decide what you want your stay to focus on.
Jordan River Trails
The Jordan River Trail is a 45-mile multi-use trail along the Jordan River. The Jordan River Trail System also includes a paved trail. If the surface is important to your plans, you can consider this paved trail as a specific feature alongside its length and multi-use purpose. The trails along the river thus offer different ways to enjoy outdoor activities.
The Jordan River Trail is open from 5:00 a.m. to 11:00 p.m. on most sections. Hours may change, so check the current times before your visit.
History of the Taylorsville and Bennion Communities
The Taylorsville-Bennion Heritage Center presents the history of the Taylorsville and Bennion communities during their first 100 years, from 1848 to 1948. The period from 1848 to 1948 thus covers a century in the history of both communities and provides a clear framework for this historical focus. If you’d like to consider local history as well as nature when choosing activities, you can weigh this option against the Jordan River trails.
Performances and Rehearsals
The Mid-Valley Performing Arts Center offers spaces for performances and rehearsals in Taylorsville. Its focus differs from that of the Heritage Center: performing arts take center stage here, while the Heritage Center focuses on the history of the Taylorsville and Bennion communities. The Performing Arts Center offers comprehensive ticketing services through ArtTix. Ticket arrangements may change, so if you plan to attend a performance, check the latest ticket information in advance.
Climbing and Swimming
The Taylorsville Recreation Center offers supervised climbing for all ages and abilities. This is a different kind of recreation from the bike and walking trails along the river: supervision is a key feature of the climbing program. Program availability may change. Check before your visit if climbing is an essential part of your plans.
The outdoor swimming pool operates seasonally. Amenities include a zero-entry pool, water toys, and a waterslide, as well as a lap pool and a diving area. The pool offers a variety of ways to enjoy the water, from swimming laps to playing with water features and using the diving area. Pool operations are seasonal; dates and amenities may change. Check the latest seasonal information if you plan to visit the pool.
