Lindon Marina / Lindon Beach / Geneva Settling Ponds

Settling Ponds to the South by Eric Huish ©Eric Huish

Description: There is a new paved walking trail along the shore of Utah Lake. It starts north of the Lindon Marina and follows the lake shore about 1 1/2 miles south. Just south of the marina along this trail there is an old Geneva Steel Plant settling pond and south of the pond is Lindon Beach. There is parking access for the trail at the entrance to the marina, a parking area on the East side of the road near south end of the settling ponds (at Lindon Beach) and a little parking at the south end of the trail (where the trail meets the road). There is an entrance fee if you wish to enter the marina. No fee to walk the parkway.
