The Provo Canyon section rises uphill slightly but is a piece of cake just the same. Midsummer can be very warm. During winter, the path may be covered with snow, which can make for a fun day of ski touring if you are so inclined. City and county parks along the route are open from early April through October. The Parkway passes through the center of Provo plus ten city and county parks.
All parks have water taps and restrooms.
Provo has all visitor services, including bike shops. Be alert to oncoming recreationists and stay to the right side of the path. Bikes should travel in single file. Watch for gates, entrance labyrinths, or wooden posts that prevent motorized access at trailheads and where the Parkway crosses roadways. Yield to vehicular traffic at crossroads.
