Millcreek Canyon is one of the few local canyons that charges and entrance fee, but that keeps it a little less crowded than the others. Some of our favorite trails are Pipeline, Rattlesnake Loop, Grandeur Peak and Dog Lake. Dogs are allowed in the canyon but only allowed “off-leash” on odd-numbered days. If you are looking for less dog traffic, try Big or Little Cottonwood Canyons.
