Red Butte is our local botanical gardens. It is a gorgeous place if you have a couple of hours and want to take a stroll. There are also summer concerts here. They sell out fast.

Erik

From Katie's guidebook

Lucky 13. So, this place might be tied in my heart for best burger in SLC. Lucky 13 is licensed technically as a bar here (you’ll need your ID to get in), but it is famous for it’s tasty burgers. Plus, it’s just a 0.6-mile walk from the Airbnb! You really can’t go wrong with whichever burger you order, and you know it’s good when it arrives in a plastic basket with a pile of hot garlic fries or onion rings. Be aware…this place can get pretty hopping so I would recommend calling ahead to get a gauge on if there’s a wait or not.

Tricia

Be forewarned, this area is an off-leash dog park so there are a lot of super excited dogs running around in this area.

Katie

From Katie's guidebook

Another great place to go for a walk when the weather is nice. It's located a bit more within the city itself compared to the trailheads I have listed with great views of the capitol and downtown.

Created over time in the mid-twentieth century behind his house it has 12 original sculptures and over 70 stones engraved with scriptures, poems, and literary texts.

It might be one of the hippest, most vibrant neighborhoods in town, but Sugar House earned its name from the sugar beets first planted here by pioneer settlers a century and a half ago. Since those humble, verdant beginnings, Sugar House has sprouted into one of the most offbeat, colorfully progressive enclaves in the valley. You’ll find plenty of restaurants, bars, breweries, shops, unexpected hangouts, and one big, glorious park with sweeping mountain views.
